GUITAR QUOTES

• Some people are drawn naturally - there are natural guitarists, and there are natural piano players, and I think guitar implies travel, a sort of footloose gypsy existence. You grab your bag and you go to the next town.
  ~ Hugh Laurie ~
• I don't read music. I don't write it. So I wander around on the guitar until something starts to present itself.
  ~ James Taylor ~
• I keep guitars that are, you know, the neck's a little bit bent and it's a little bit out of tune. I want to work and battle it and conquer it and make it express whatever attitude I have at that moment. I want it to be a struggle.

• It was my 16th birthday - my mom and dad gave me my Goya classical guitar that day. I sat down, wrote this song, and I just knew that that was the only thing I could ever really do - write songs and sing them to people.

• When I'm home on a break, I lock myself in my room and play guitar. After two or three hours, I start getting into this total meditation. It's a feeling few people experience, and that's usually when I come up with weird stuff. It just flows. I can't force myself. I don't sit down and say I've got to practice.

• I never took guitar lessons. I took classical piano lessons from the age of six when we lived in Holland.

• I never took guitar lessons. I took classical piano lessons from the age of six when we lived in Holland. And when we moved to America, it was just the typical thing except I was really good at it so was my brother.
  ~ Eddie Van Halen ~
• I have written some songs, but I would really call what I've done poetry at the end of the day, because I'll sit with my guitar for hours and hours on end for, like, a week and then I won't touch it for a month. I also just have no confidence. And you know what? I don't have time, because I'd rather be doing other things, like knitting.
  ~ Amanda Seyfried ~
• Gibson has been making the finest electric guitars the world has ever witnessed for over 70 years. They are as American as God, guns and rock and roll.
  ~ Ted Nugent ~
• I am Classic Rock Revisited. I revisit it every waking moment of my life because it has the spirit and the attitude and the fire and the middle finger. I am Rosa Parks with a Gibson guitar.
  ~ Ted Nugent ~
• Yeah, my dad bought me a guitar when I was like 10, and I didn't really want it then.
  ~ Miranda Lambert ~
• George wrote Taxman, and I played guitar on it. He wrote it in anger at finding out what the taxman did. He had never known before then what could happen to your money.

• Back then, I didn't have a big organization around me. I was just a kid with a guitar, traveling around. My responsibility basically was to the art, and I had extra time on my hands. There is no extra time now. There isn't enough time.
  ~ Joni Mitchell ~
• My dad bought me a guitar and people would ask me to play.
  ~ Rod Stewart ~
• What I do now is all my dad's fault, because he bought me a guitar as a boy, for no apparent reason.
  ~ Rod Stewart ~
• We used to play music for fun. Much more than now. Now nobody picks up a guitar unless they're paid for it.
  ~ Leonard Cohen ~
• Our last jam session was this past Christmas. Dad played his harmonica, mom sang in English and Italian, and I played guitar. I'm so happy that we could share that musical experience for one last time.

• I've always loved music, but I never really played anything. After 'Walk the Line' and learning to play guitar, and having that sense of performing, I think that certainly opened the door for me, for music.
  ~ Joaquin Phoenix ~
• I may be learning guitar, but I'll never be able to sing.
  ~ David Duchovny ~
• Ninety percent of all music is always crap, and when too many people decide they're going to have guitar bands, then ninety percent of them are going to be crap. It's just a given law.
  ~ David Byrne ~
• You pick up loads of baggage with your first record with reaction to it from fans and critics. So I went to Ireland by myself for a couple of weeks with my guitar. I read lots of poetry, I read Patti Smith's autobiography and started words and phrases and then songs started to take shape.
  ~ Ellie Goulding ~
• Radiohead and Our Lady Peace are doing the seven layers of guitar, and I kind of jumped on that before anyone else did.
