People don't run out of dreams - people just run out of time.
Glenn Frey
'Dreams are limitless, but time is finite.'
2.
We set out to become a band for our time. But sometimes if you do a good-enough job, you become a band for all time.
Glenn Frey
'We set out to become a group for our era. But if you perform exceptionally well, you could be remembered in perpetuity.'
3.
Except for a few guitar chords, everything I've learned in my life that is of any value I've learned from women.
Glenn Frey
'Apart from a handful of guitar chords, all the wisdom I possess that is of any substance has been obtained from women.'
4.
There's another kind of poverty that only rich men know, a moral malnutrition that starves their very souls.
Glenn Frey
5.
Somebody asked my friend Bob Seger, Why do you think the Eagles broke up? He said, Hotel California.
Glenn Frey
6.
Our lives are changing, this old world keeps turning. And I sit here and wonder, baby, what we're really learning.
Glenn Frey
7.
I got me a car and I got me some gas,Told everybody they could kiss my ass.
Glenn Frey
8.
Hey, I didn't make a big deal out of Hotel California. The 18 million people that bought it did.
Glenn Frey
9.
I'm just a bleeping maniac in straight clothing. There's no reason to dress my monster up.
Glenn Frey
10.
People don't care how you feel. You need to paint pictures, you need to tell stories. That's what people want. They want to be entertained. Then all of the other stuff kind of filters across as part of the whole thing.
Glenn Frey
11.
Follow your musical instincts. Do what you feel is right. Don't be relegated to a certain category.
Glenn Frey
12.
I think musicians and artists are the most philanthropic people I know. Their charity record of the music business would hold up to the work of anybody.
Glenn Frey
13.
There are only those certain people where things click - at least for me.
Glenn Frey
14.
Detroit... where 'mother' is half a word.
Glenn Frey
15.
If the Eagles were to get back together, it would have to be for the right reasons. I think it would look awful if it were just for the money.
Glenn Frey
16.
I really think one of the greatest allies you can have is the imagination of your audience.
Glenn Frey
17.
I've read somewhere that when you're writing, you should stop while you're doing well so you always want to go back to work.
Glenn Frey
18.
I read the Life magazine articles about free love and free dope in California. At age 20 I drove to Los Angeles.
Glenn Frey
19.
My songs grow on people - like warts.
Glenn Frey
20.
Without a reunion, the Eagles are forever young, like James Dean.
Glenn Frey
21.
Some people, they just don't get a joke.
Glenn Frey
22.
If you're writing songs by yourself, who's going to tell you if it's good or not? But if you're writing songs with somebody else, you get that immediate feedback.
Glenn Frey
23.
It's a losing proposition, but one you can't refuse. It's the politics of contraband, it's the smuggler's blues.
Glenn Frey
24.
If you get a chance to be in a film, that's great. One of my goals is to make a record as good as Don Henley's album, Building the Perfect Beast.
Glenn Frey
25.
Money was a much saner goal than adoration. They'll both drive you crazy but if I'm going to blow my brains out for five years, I want something to show for it.
Glenn Frey
26.
I won't apologize for ticket prices. I think we're well worth it. We consider ourselves in the elite touring acts, like the Stones, Elton John, Paul McCartney.
Glenn Frey
27.
I think that's a powerful thing, to be able to engage your audience and let them put some of themselves into the music.
Glenn Frey
28.
If we're so awful and we're so bad, you ought to check out the nightlife in Leningrad.
Glenn Frey
29.
The last two years with the Eagles were pretty intense times. There was a lot of drinking and we were all getting high a lot. My parents were relieved when I got off the Eagles treadmill.
Glenn Frey
30.
The great thing about being 30 is that there are a great deal more available women. The young ones look younger and the old ones don't look nearly as old.
Glenn Frey
31.
I'm just as insufferable and useless as every other dad is. The dynamic never changes, no matter what you do for a living.
Glenn Frey
32.
I think it would be nice to sell 15 million albums as a solo artist. I'd have to deal with all the repercussions of that, but that wouldn't be too bad.
Glenn Frey
33.
That's what I miss out of all this synthesized music - it starts to lose dynamics.
Glenn Frey
34.
It was 1967, and the hippie thing was happening. I got into experimenting with drugs while I was in college in Michigan.
Glenn Frey
35.
Hey, a woman changed her mind - what else is new?
Glenn Frey
36.
I wanted to sing songs that my voice was comfortable with.
Glenn Frey
37.
I grew up in Detroit. So my mother always loved big band music.
Glenn Frey
