But music seems to me to be the most closely identified with my soul. I mean, I feel that itโs the best for me. It just gets into the bloodstream so quickly, for no reason at all. You can close your heart, and you can sleep even with your eyes closed, but you can never close your ears.
Jeff BuckleyMusic is my mother and my father; it is my work and my rest...my blood...my compass...my love.
Jeff BuckleyIf you feel blocked, do not turn to others, but look inside, in silence, for the enemy of your progress.
Jeff Buckley[What I want to communicate] doesn't have a language with which I can communicate it. The things that I want to communicate are simply self-evident, emotional things. And the gifts of those things are that they bring both intellectual and emotional gifts - understanding. But I don't really have a major message that I want to bring to the world through my music. The music can tell people everything they need to know about being human beings. It's not my information, it's not mine. I didn't make it. I just discovered it.
