Jimi Hendrix Quotes

-Jimi Hendrix

"Music is my religion."

"We want our sound to go into the soul of the audience, and see if it can awaken some little thing in their minds... 'Cause there are so many sleeping people."
-Jimi Hendrix, in conversation with Dick Cavett

".. I get more of a dreamy thing from the audience - it's more of a thing that you go up into. You get into such a pitch sometimes that you go up into another thing. You don't forget about the audience, but you forget about all the paranoia, that thing where you're saying, 'Oh gosh, I'm on stage - what am I going to do now ?' - Then you go into this other thing, and it turns out to be like almost like a play in certain ways"
-Jimi Hendrix

"I'm gonna put a curse on you and all your kids will be born completely naked"

"Knowledge speaks, but wisdom listens."

"I don't give a fuck if you boo, as long as you boo in key..."

"Anybody can do anything, it's up to themselves. All it takes is the right intentions."

Jimi's answer when asked by Dick Cavett whether music had a meaning or not:
"Definitely, and it's getting more spiritual. Pretty soon I believe people will have to rely on music to get some kind of peace of mind, or satisfaction, or direction, actually. More so than politics, the big ego scene. You know it's an art of words... Meaning nothing. Therefore you will have to get an earthier substance, like music or the arts."
-Jimi Hendrix

"The time I burned my guitar it was like a sacrifice. You sacrifice the things you love. I love my guitar."
-Jimi Hendrix

"Music is Magic. Magic is Life"
-Jimi Hendrix
(part of an unfinished song discovered after his death)
