Neil Young Quotes
Better to burn out than rust out.
- Neil Young
At our school, we deal with kids who have brain injuries, strokes, cerebral palsy, things like that. I'm very familiar with that. So I was thinking of not being able to do what I do. It didn't freak me out. It just made me think: Now you've got to play this card. Now you're going to do what you can, in the time that you have.
- Neil Young
Ain't it hard when you wake up in the morning, and you find out that those other days are gone... All you have is memories of happiness, lingering on... All your friends and your lovers won't protect you; they're only passing through you in the end... They'll leave you stripped of all that you can get to and wait for you to come back again... But still a light is shining, from that lamp on down the hall... Maybe the Star of Bethlehem wasn't a star at all.
- Neil Young
[The lyrics are filled with reminiscences.] It's about where I'm from and where our family's from and where the world is going... and what it used to be like when my grandfather was a kid, and what they remember and what I remember them telling me about, the things that they saw that no one will ever see again.
- Neil Young
[The archive project has been as time-consuming as Prairie Wind was spontaneous.] When I do finally get it out there, it's going to be a great relief... It's like a huge overcoat that I wear. It's got a lot of pockets in it. Some of them are full of diamonds. Some of them are just full of lead. It's a burden, but it's getting lighter.
- Neil Young
