Elliott Smith Records Quotations

I actually don't think that I'm gonna sell a lot of records.

I was trying to do the same thing that I always do which is make an interesting record

My girlfriend at the time convinced me to send these songs to Cavity Search. When they wanted to put out my record I was totally shocked.

I want to keep making records as long as I can and that's the beginning and end of my concern about selling records.

People are so... seem so chaotic internally, but being filtered through some form, like making a record, sort of filters it down into something that can be understood.

Theres a bunch of Elvis Costello records that made all the difference between feeling like a total freak and feeling like ... only a freak. A freak among other freaks
