Rock the Word: Quotes by Rock

Quotes on life and artistic creation by famous rock musicians

Read a collection of sayings from articulate rock musicians on life, music and the status quo.

Let's admit it: not all rock musicians are brilliant all of the time. Most of them are far better at expressing themselves with melodies than with sentences. That's the skill they have become famous for, after all. However, in their moments of lucidity, a common thread seems to emerge in all of their declarations; a human lifestyle called rock'n'roll, in its different ways of expression.

The selection criteria for these quotes has been taking as much as possible the gross stuff out, to show each of those creative, sometimes very tortured individuals under their best light, hopefuly providing a comprehensive glance at this rich and diverse thing called Rock and Roll, famous for creating a sense of community and emotional connection among its followers that simply does not exist in other musical genres.

If you are in a band trying to decide your next move, or simply if you enjoy any kind of rock music, there's a word waiting for you in here.
