Paul Westerberg Quotes


Reading music is like listening to flowers. I don't understand the concept.

Right now, it hasn't affected my music other than the fact that I don't have time to write any of it. That's no different from when I first started and I lived at home. I would play the guitar in the afternoon and then my mom or my dad would come home and I'd have to quit.

So I figured in keeping with the record, I'd do something off the wall which is show up for free and wing it... I don't know, I'm just going to play some songs. I think it'll be fun.

Stick with your heart and you'll be fine.

The best I can say is that it's better for me to write about despair and darkness than to be incapable of getting off the sofa. It's better to write about suicide than to contemplate it too heavily.

The hack songwriter will write the absolute truth every single word, whether it makes a great song or not.

The truth is overrated.

Then again, I think about high school every day and I think about being a little kid every day too.

You know, he likes me because I'm his son. I have to go long and far to find someone who knows me just as me, rather than me the songwriter or whatever.
