If you dont mark your successes, the day your ship comes in could be just another day at the office, and theres no poetry in that. – Glen Hansard

The muse holds no appointments. You can never call on it. I dont understand people who get up at 9 oclock in the morning, put on the coffee and sit down to write. – Glen Hansard
And for some reason, when Im sad, I do listen to Leonard Cohen, I do listen to Joni Mitchell. I do find myself going to the music thats actually reflecting my mood, as opposed to sticking on Motown, which might actually bring my mood up. – Glen Hansard
