James Taylor Music Quotations

Music is my living. I enjoy selling my music.

I'm very unstable; there's no stability in a musician's life at all. You live on a bus or on the road hand to mouth and you don't know where your money's coming from.

I don't find the songs; they find me. I just strum my guitar and wait for a lyric to come.

Music is like a huge release of tension.

Ireland, Italy and Brazil are the most musical places for me. They're extremely musical cultures and anything you pitch they basically catch.

I would advise you to keep your overhead down; avoid a major drug habit; play everyday, and take it front of other people. They need to hear it, and you need them to hear it.

I don't read music. I don't write it. So I wander around on the guitar until something starts to present itself.

I believe musicians have a duty, a responsibility to reach out, to share your love or pain with others.

The secret of life is enjoying the passage of time.

I don't read music. I don't write or read music.

I enjoy selling my music. I don't enjoy selling myself.
