Nirvana Quotes

Nirvana was like that- Nirvana was like the only band to come out of that- it was like the same thing, Seattle was like this whole scene and it was like this big scene that was thrust upon America. Jon Fishman
Nirvana was pop. You can have distorted guitars and people say it's alternative, but you can't break out of pop music's constructs and still get extensive radio play and media coverage. Kristin Hersh
Rabindranath Tagore quote: "Nirvana is not the blowing out of the candle. It is the..."
Nirvana is not the blowing out of the candle. It is the extinguishing of the flame because day is come. Rabindranath Tagore
The REM and Nirvana successes don't mean much to me except as a potential distraction for bands who want to cash in on the trend. Don't try to sound like someone else. REM and Nirvana don't sound like anyone else. Greg Ginn
I don't believe in nirvana. If nirvana was handed to us on a silver platter, this would be the first day of our struggle to keep it. Holly Near
Pearl Jam is a band I have a lot of respect for. Nirvana and Sonic Youth I feel the same way about. Mumford & Sons, My Morning Jacket, Wilco, Givers, and Foo Fighters are just some of my favorites. I respect bands that give me something of themselves that I can feel. ("Posing" bands turn me off generally speaking.) It all has to do with a feeling I have about them. That is what music is to me, a feeling. It's similar with people too. Neil Young
Television's perfect. You turn a few knobs, a few of those mechanical adjustments at which the higher apes are so proficient, and lean back and drain your mind of all thought. And there you are watching the bubbles in the primeval ooze. You don't have to concentrate. You don't have to react. You don't have to remember. You don't miss your brain because you don't need it. Your heart and liver and lungs continue to function normally. Apart from that, all is peace and quiet. You are in the man's... Raymond Chandler
Through the seas of dreams and the seas of fantasies, through the seas of solitudes and vacancies, and through myself, the deepest of the seas, I strive to thee, Nirvana. Sidney Lanier
David Letterman quote: "I haven't reached nirvana yet, but I've been to Detroit."
I haven't reached nirvana yet, but I've been to Detroit. David Letterman
Jon Stewart quote: "You can use your idealism to further your aims, if you realize..."
You can use your idealism to further your aims, if you realize that nothing is Nirvana, nothing is perfect. Jon Stewart
Jack Kerouac quote: "Finding Nirvana is like locating silence."
Finding Nirvana is like locating silence. Jack Kerouac
Frederick Buechner quote: "This side of Nirvana, there is no such escape for any of us as..."
This side of Nirvana, there is no such escape for any of us as far as I know. Frederick Buechner
The search for Nirvana, like the search for Utopia or the end of history or the classless society, is ultimately a futile and dangerous one. It involves, if it does not necessitate, the sleep of reason. There is no escape from anxiety and struggle. Christopher Hitchens
Homer was wrong," wrote Heracleitus of Ephesus. "Homer was wrong in saying: 'Would that strife might perish from among gods and men!' He did not see that he was praying for the destruction of the universe; for if his prayer were heard, all things would pass away." These are the words on which the superhumanists should meditate. Aspiring toward a consistent perfection, they are aspiring toward annihilation. The Hindus had the wit to see and the courage to proclaim the fact; Nirvana, the goal... Aldous Huxley
He loved Nirvana, but at his age they were kind of a guilty pleasure. All that rage and pain and self-hatred! Will got a bit...fed up sometimes, but he couldn't pretend it was anything stronger than that. So now he used loud angry rock music as a replacement for real feelings, rather than as an expression of them, and he didn't even mind very much. What good were real feelings anyway? Nick Hornby
