I don't like greed, I don't like ignorance. I really don't like anger. But I love love.

Being a hippy was the most natural thing in the world to me.

I've always been a very careful sailor. I know, me and being careful - doesn't really sound right, does it? But when I sail, I take it seriously and take along spares for everything. You have to be careful when you're 1,500 miles from land. There's no one you can call. You're on your own.

From David Crosby

I am having so much fun performing, I feel almost guilty. I think, my God, I hope no one comes and busts me for this.

From David Crosby

My father being in the movie business, I thought being an actor would be great. But when I started singing to people in coffeehouses, you know, singing folk music and then, later, singing songs that I started to write myself, I felt more than an affinity for it.

From David Crosby

Describing Woodstock as the 'big bang,' I think that's a great way to describe it, because the important thing about it wasn't how many people were there or that it was a lot of truly wonderful music that got played.

From David Crosby

When it all started, record companies - and there were many of them, and this was a good thing - were run by people who loved records, people like Ahmet Ertegun, who ran Atlantic Records, who were record collectors. They got in it because they loved music.

From David Crosby

Now record companies are run by lawyers and accountants. The shift from the one to the other was definitely related to when the takes started to get big.

From David Crosby

The people who run record companies now wouldn't know a song if it flew up their nose and died. They haven't a clue, and they don't care. You tell them that, and they go, Yeah? So, your point is?

From David Crosby

I'm an inveterate bookstore wanderer. I read constantly, so I love a good bookstore. I can't help it.
