When I record an album I'm trying to get as close as possible to that perfect moment.
Quote by -Lou Reed
When you think the night has seen your mind, that inside you're twisted and unkind, let me stand, to show that you are blind. Please put down you hands. Cause I see you; I'll be you mirror.
Quote by -Lou Reed
I think that everything happens for a reason, everything happens when it's going to happen.
Quote by -Lou Reed
There's only X amount of time. You can do whatever you want with that time. It's your time.
Quote by -Lou Reed
How can anybody learn anything from an artwork when the piece of art only reflects the vanity of the artist and not reality?
Quote by -Lou Reed
Meditation doesn't have to be complicated. What I do is about as simple as you can get. You could just count the beads, one, two, three, with your eyes closed or open, whatever makes you happy.
Quote by -Lou Reed
I can't do anything I want to. I mean, I can't have my own TV show. I can't have my own movie. But within my little world, nobody tells me what to put on the albums.
Quote by -Lou Reed
I'm writing about real things. Real people. Real characters. You have to believe what I write about is true or you wouldn't pay any attention at all. Sometimes it's me, or a composite of me and other people. Sometimes it's not me at all.
Quote by -Lou Reed
I wouldn't want to hear Beethoven without beautiful bass, the cellos, the tuba. It's very important. Hip-hop has thunderous bass. And so does Beethoven. If you don't have the bass, it's like being amputated. It's like you have no legs.
Quote by -Lou Reed
Let's do what you fear most That from which you recoil But which still makes your eyes moist
Quote by -Lou Reed
I think life is far too short to concentrate on your past. I rather look into the future.
Quote by -Lou Reed
I don't think I'm in any position to call myself a martial artist. I'm a student of the martial arts.
Quote by -Lou Reed
I don't mind a repetitive chorus; I mind repetitive verse. I mean, it's the same amount of space. Why would you have only three diamonds if you can have six?
Quote by -Lou Reed
I'll tell ya, I'm a genuinely nice guy. I really am. A real nice guy. But I think I'm temperamental.
Quote by -Lou Reed
When you think the night has seen your mind, That inside your twisted and unkind, Let me stand to show that you are blind. Please put down you hands cause I see you. I'll be you mirror.
Quote by -Lou Reed
Music should come crashing out of your speakers and grab you, and the lyrics should challenge whatever preconceived notions that listener has.
Quote by -Lou Reed
These are really terribly rough times, and we really should try to be as nice to each other as possible.
