Top 10 most inspiring quotes by Ben Folds

  • You have made me smile again; in fact I may be sore from it- it’s been awhile.
  • With the a cappella groups, every voice is like one string on a guitar, one note on the piano, or one cymbal, and you don’t have the luxury of falling back on anything.
  • The nature of honesty is that if someone has information or knows something about you that you don’t want heard, then they have power over you.
  • If you’re afraid they might discover your redneck past, there are a hundred ways to cover your redneck past.
  • I feel like a quote out of context, withholding the rest so I can be for you what you want to see.
  • I do think that when you make repeated mistakes, it’s usually because you’re just not coming to grips with something.
  • I do have that mindset – that most good art comes from some turmoil, from someone trying to come to some equilibrium, or come up and get a breath.
  • When someone really goes to tell you something about what they’re thinking, they’re going to wear that experience with them. That’s what you have to share.
  • I have manic energy. What can be done about it? I don’t know what to say sometimes. I’m professional in public, but I like to stay inside and be a hermit.
  • I think a lot of good directors listen to music while they’re working. The songs just don’t become a part of the film. They’re replaced.
