Dave Matthews quotes about
I can't believe that we would lie in our graves wondering if we had spent our living days well. I can't believe that we would lie in our graves dreaming of things that we might have been.
Isn't it strange how we move out lives for another day? Like skipping a beat, what if a great wave should wash us all away?
Don’t you rob yourself of what you’re feeling; don’t rob yourself of all that you could be.
Goodnight moon. Sweet dreams. Smile kindly upon this little blue gum ball of us while we sleep.
For a moment this good time would never end You and me Just wasting time I was kissing you You were kissing me love From good day into a moonlight
Take these chances Place them in a box until a quieter time Lights down, you up and die
Look Here are we On this starry night staring into space And I must say I feel as small as dust Lying down here What point could there be troubling? Head down wondering what will Become of me Why concern we cannot see But no reason to abandon it Time is short but that's all right Maybe I'll go in the middle of the night Take your hands from your eyes, my love Everything must end some time Don't burn the day away
She thinks, "Hey, How did I come to this? I dream myself a thousand times around the world, But I can't get out of this place"
I'm a very vicious critic of myself.
I was regularly advised not to go into music, that I should give up that foolish dream.
...Oh, man, oh how I wish I didn't smoke or drink to reason with my head...
When you can no longer differentiate between the insanity spewed onto the blank page, and the madness evident in the all-but shattered mirror...that's when you know you're doing it right.
