Van Morrison quotes about
I've got love in my life, as well as trouble and strife.
hark, now hear the sailors cry, smell the sea, and feel the sky let your soul & spirit fly, into the mystic...
There's always got to be a struggle. What else is there? That's what life is made of. I don't know anything else. If there is, tell me about it.
Have I told you lately that I love you, have I told you lately there's no one above you. Fill my heart with gladness, take away all my sadness, ease my troubles, that's what you do.
Let go into the mystery. Let yourself go. And when you open up your heart, you get everything you need. Baby there's a way and a mystic road. You've got to have some faith to carry on, you've got to open up your heart to the Son.
There is no black-and-white situation. It's all part of life. Highs, lows, middles.
You gotta fight every day to keep mediocrity at bay...
Memories, how they linger in the twilight and in the wee small hours sometimes just before dawn.
Go up to the mountain, go up to the glen, where silence will touch you, and heartbreak will mend.
The blues - there's no black and white - it's the truth.
The wild night is calling.
I've never felt like I was born with a silver spoon at all, although I've felt like howling at the moon a lot of times!
Smell the sea and feel the sky.
Spiritual hunger and spiritual thirst But you got to change it On the inside first To be satisfied
