Rock Quotes

Music is such a great communicator. It breaks down linguistic barriers, cultural barriers, it basically reaches out. That’s when rock n’ roll succeeds, and that’s what virtuosity is all about Picture Quote #1

Rock is stronger than any misguided theories of cultural events. It’s bigger than that Picture Quote #1

A culture which doesn’t believe in region and religion is like a rock music, noise for old generation and nirvana for the young ones Picture Quote #1

The boys in the office preferred Daft Punk and the song Robot Rock as an anthem, speaking excitedly and without irony about wanting to become robots one day. That made me wonder: Why? What’s the pull of being a robot? Picture Quote #1

All of the punk-rock bands of the era would come in and play, and my job on Punk Rock Night was that I would go into the slam pit, and... I was 24 or 25, and I’d slam dance in the pit Picture Quote #1

I’m not much of a political person and even if I was, look, Rock ‘n’ Roll is supposed to be fun and sexy and a little bit dangerous Picture Quote #1

From the top of a high rock, I obtained a good few of the most extensive and dreary wilderness I ever beheld. It chilled the heart to gaze on these barrens of Labrador. Indeed, I now dread every change of harbor, so horridly rugged and dangerous is the whole coast and country to the eye, and to the experienced man either of the sea or the land Picture Quote #1

I’ve always had the hair of Lionel Ritchie since I was a boy, but the mullet sadly is a hairpiece. My wife won’t let me rock that hairstyle Picture Quote #1

I’m very into dark colors. I try to rock the dark against the ghost white skin as much as humanly possible Picture Quote #1

It’s fun to look at people that are so good at acting that aren’t actors, like David Bowie creating a mystique about rock n’ roll. I’ve listened to ‘Ziggy Stardust’ as much as any rock n’ roll fan - I don’t really know what it’s about, but it sure is fun to think about David Bowie as this mad creation Picture Quote #1

David Bowie emerged as a rock star in the late 60s. And as Ken Tucker wrote, In the face of the hippy era’s sincerity, intimacy and generosity, Bowie presented irony, distance and self-absorption. His song ‘Changes’ announced the arrival of a new counterculture, unquote Picture Quote #1

So we got there at 6 a.m. We’d be shooting by 6:45. We wouldn’t break for lunch, we’d just pass food around all day. And we would just rock and roll ‘til 4, then Matty Libatique, our great cinematographer, would say, ‘Outta light, guys’ - and that was it Picture Quote #1

Music has been my everything since day one. It’s been my shoulder to cry on, my rock and my best friend Picture Quote #1

I didn’t have any aspirations of becoming famous or successful; in fact I was scared to death of all that. I remember somebody once said that if a rock musician goes on tour, he goes insane. I was very impressionable and I carried this useless weight of fear around with me about going on tour, all because of this thing somebody said Picture Quote #1

I thought of all that worked dark pits Of war, and died Digging the rock where Death reputes Peace lies indeed Picture Quote #1

Directly after Rock Hudson’s death came the fears that gay writers and actors and directors would be denied jobs; who knew if they would live long enough to finish a feature film or television series? And would the unions force directors to give blood tests and ban actors who tested positive? Picture Quote #1

Make your decisions like a rock and live your life like a flow of water Picture Quote #1

Go deeper than love, for the soul has greater depths, love is like the grass, but the heart is deep wild rock molten, yet dense and permanent Picture Quote #1

. . . rock and roll, as I see it, is the ultimate populist art form, democracy in action, because it’s true: anybody can do it Picture Quote #1

I wanted to be a rock star. I dreamed of it, and that’s all I dreamed of. To be more accurate, I wanted to be a pop star. This was in the late 80s. And mostly, I wanted to be the fifth member of Depeche Mode or Duran Duran Picture Quote #1

When I began to choreograph and find my way pulling other artists’ dreams out and changing music in a visual way, there was still a part of me that had something more to say. There was still a desire to rock a stage and ultimately perform the eight count of my dream, but there was a lot of insecurity there Picture Quote #1

Some have called we rock and roll performers who never retire ‘troubadours.’ I enjoy this misnomer immensely. While there are many differences between me and my distant predecessors in L’Occitane, I do believe there is a lineage that connects us of the last 70 years with those romantic singers of the High Middle Ages Picture Quote #1

See, to me, rock’n’roll doesn’t have any point. It’s just fun. It has a million different angles and they’re all valid. But I think rock might be a world issue Picture Quote #1

I jumped off a cliff backwards for ‘I Am Number Four,’ which was pretty cool. I’d never done that before. It took seven takes from different angles and luckily there were no injuries. I came close, though. My head nearly hit the rock at one point Picture Quote #1

I thought that I could do some kind of vehicle involving rock musicals and presenting rock and characters and storyline in a completely different fashion Picture Quote #1

When I was a young student, I only listened to foreign music, mainly rock music and hard rock. Then I surprised myself by discovering ethnic music. Now I like to listen to music from different places, and in many situations. Even when you work, some ethnic music calms the nerves Picture Quote #1

I have always touched on different genres whether it has been hip-hop, country and the rock element Picture Quote #1

There’s always music that moves me. It doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s within the parenthesis of rock or blues, or whatever. It’s usually far more reaching than that. It can be in many different genres Picture Quote #1

For us, it is all about breaking the boundaries between different genres of music and combining different styles of music and performing what we are passionate about. We are so lucky that we can experience both worlds: the more intimate classical world and the wild and crazy world of rock n’ roll Picture Quote #1

I do like writing songs in a band. When it’s rock, it’s such a different kind of dynamic, obviously Picture Quote #1
