I live with myself. I wake up...

I live with myself. I wake up with myself, I eat, and I take a dump with myself. I don't see anything special there. I do all the same things other human beings and creatures do. I don't see any need to be telling the data of the day of this particular human being by posting it on online. It's not interesting to me.

I had to take a bit of a break and fast for a while, but then I found myself very, very hungry when I got back to [song-writing].

Damien Rice 23 quotes

When you go to bed at night, ...

When you go to bed at night, you get seven or eight hours of sleep. I've had enough sleep. I've rested, and it's as simple as that. I want to do it now. I didn't want to three years ago. I was waiting until it felt right. I wanted to get back to falling in love with my guitar again, and hanging out with my guitar like I would a friend.

Damien Rice 23 quotes

For me, the more I live, the ...

For me, the more I live, the more I need to write. The more I push myself to really live and really experience things and step outside of my comfort zone, the more the songs are allowed to flow.

Stones taught me to fly Love taught me to lie And life taught me to die So it's not hard to fall When you float like a cannonball.

Damien Rice 23 quotes

They wanted to 'radiofy' what I was doing. I was also in a position where I was compromised. I was much younger and maybe it is because I am Irish but there was a guilt factor when the record company pays you a lot of money, you feel obliged.

Damien Rice 23 quotes

May you be satisfied to never know why-sometimes someone just wants to die.

Damien Rice 23 quotes

A kite needs to be tied down ...

A kite needs to be tied down in order to fly. I learned how important restrictions can sometimes be in order to experience freedom.

Damien Rice 23 quotes

Inside, I've got a real purist desire and dream about the music. I like the idea of being able to carve out a kind of magical, colourful, artistic, inspirational life. And the reality just turns out to be quite different, working with the business to bring this thing you have created into the world.

Damien Rice 23 quotes

Sometimes you have to step away from what you love in order to learn how to love it again.

Damien Rice 23 quotes

When I started off in music, ...

When I started off in music, I started with a real innocence, a real love for the instrument, the writing the songs, the playing the songs and the sharing and the recording and experimenting. It was exciting. Then, this thing called success came, and something happened at some point where I became disenchanted, and I lost the innocence.

Damien Rice 23 quotes

The thing running through me ...

The thing running through me is the same thing that writes songs. It's the fighter about to get into the ring. It's like, I'm not here to entertain you; I'm here to get this out, whatever it is.

Damien Rice 23 quotes

I am really curious about life, about why we are all here. I notice my skin is ageing, things are changing, I've seen people dying, so that's the train we are all on.

Damien Rice 23 quotes

The more I push myself to really live and really experience things and step outside of my comfort zone, the more the songs are allowed to flow.

Damien Rice 23 quotes

When I'm in a place like Iceland, I allow myself to take a little more time to divert off onto other paths creatively for a while and see what comes to me.

Damien Rice 23 quotes

I want to get comfortable wit...

I want to get comfortable with my insecurities until I am no longer insecure. I want to be comfortable in my skin so that I do not need to dump any of my discomfort onto someone else in the form of judgment.

Damien Rice 23 quotes

Being able to walk out of the...

Being able to walk out of the studio after a week of intense recording and jump into a cold sea and sit in a hot spring and soak for a few hours completely resets the whole system. Really refreshing. For me, it's all about stepping out of the ordinary. Even psychically.

Damien Rice 23 quotes

Music enables me to cleanse and shed the things that I feel are holding me back from growing, or growing up.

Damien Rice 23 quotes

I don't want to stand in fron...

I don't want to stand in front of a whole lot of fakeys. If I'm going to meet someone and say hello, I want to feel like I'm really meeting that person, not a masked version. I want to give that to people when they meet me. You don't have to like it. I'm not looking for you to like it; I'm looking to be myself.

Damien Rice 23 quotes

I'm not the guy that wants to...

I'm not the guy that wants to be famous and make loads of money and sell loads of records. I don't want that. I just want to be true. I want to be... I want to serve music. I want to be honest.
