Kenny Loggins Quotations

Real freedom is creative, proactive, and will take me into new territories. I am not free if my freedom is predicated on reacting to my past.

Women are just beginning to see that; there's something about being a woman that's innately different from being a man. I love what I'm seeing take place and I know Julia has so much to offer.

The corporate woman has been defined as the 'liberated woman' and I see that as the exact opposite. I think she now is more enslaved, maybe even more than the housewife was; because she's so out of her power, and imitating male power is not female power.

My trust in a higher power that wants me to survive and have love in my life, is what keeps me moving forward.

There is trust in there being a Spirit who loves me and wants me to have love in my life. I trust in this higher power, it is what keeps me moving forward no matter what happens.

I am learning to forgive my inner geek, and even value him as a free man.

My quest these days is to find my long lost inner child, but I'm afraid if I do, I'll end up with food in my hair and way too in love with the cats.

When I see that my geek may have contained some of the best parts of me, when I love and appreciate him, I set my children free to see themselves as lovable however they are.

You must have love as the core; it takes courage to be willing to constantly tell the truth to each other and risk letting the relationship go.

I had to get in touch with the source, I had to go back into my abandonment issues with my mother, I had to go into issues with my father I hadn't even looked at before.

The more honest you can be, the less you have to hide... when I have nothing to hide, I have everything to give.

Whatever I have not yet learned to tolerate in myself inevitably will appear in my children. In this way, they, like Julia, guide me to a new level of self-awareness and everyone benefits.

We busted a lot of family secrets with this. But to make a long story short, my parents relationship was built heavily on security issues for my Mom, and when my Dad couldn't provide security, the relationship unraveled.

I couldn't be in a relationship and behave like somebody else or pretend I felt something I didn't feel. And that includes saying things I thought might jeopardize the relationship.

I am attracting a new audience now, one that is more open and more spiritually inclined.

I must let go of my need for the world to love me.

It's hard enough doing something bold without jumping into your bad reviews.

My rite of passage into my brave new world, life on the road.

I know that Julia has been given to me for my spiritual growth, and this moment is perfect for us both. I know that I love her, and I know she's my soul mate.

I've worked so hard to eliminate the inner geek from my life. I suddenly realize I have no patience for those people who still have their geeks showing. Now I see why being 'normal' has been so important to me.

This is the front edge of the spiritual, psychological movement and is where the tools of psychology have finally come together to create a mass healing. I think spiritual psychology is the next wave.

That's an old saying I just made up.

I am not as scared about people tearing this one up as I would have been in the past because of the basis in 'knowing' this one has. There are people out there that are hungry for this.

I couldn't have come up with a better metaphor for my life and my internal conflict. It amazes me how quickly we can manifest our fears; not only had I created my 'I'm never satisfied, I'll drive her away' nightmare.

I think Julia is defining a new feminism. It's the power of the open heart. And its ok to be sexual.

Relationships are so much a rerun of our parental relationships. We're rerunning the relationship they were in together and we're rerunning the relationship we had with them with our lover.

It's been quite a 'pattern interrupt', a massive change of the old programming.

I knew what book we had to write, it was clear in my head; it was journals and poetry. So I passed on their offer. I told my agent this is our vision, and no one's done it this way.

When we were first offered a book deal prior to Avon's, they were trying to get us to change it from the first-person story into a how-to book, and they were offering us some decent money. My agent told me; 'you should really consider this'.

Why not hold on to whatever I've got because it's as good as it's ever going to get. How can I believe that love is coming, how can I even believe that love exists; if I don't believe it's spiritually based?

I watched his body slowly disintegrate until he died. That all began when my father was about aged 50, the age I just turned last month.

What had been running me was this program that 'You run as fast as you can and when you stop running, your life comes apart and you die.'

No one can tell what the future holds, you're backs to the corner, you make the choice of how it goes.

Courage is always rewarded.

It's just a favorite language to me, that country finger-picking guitar style.

It's interesting to see how acoustic guitars are emerging as a primary instrument once again ... reminds me very much of what Jim Messina and I were doing back then. You can't get too far away from an acoustic guitar

To feel is to communicate with your Spirit-with God. Feeling is God's mirror; intuition is God's telephone. To seek your truth is to deepen your connection to Spirit.

The Spirit speaks directly to our hearts through music. That's why music has always had such power to move people into positive action.

The hardest thing to remember is that what we each really want is the truth of our lives, good or bad. Not rocking the boat is an illusion that can only be maintained by the unspoken agreement not to feel and in the long run it never really works. Let go of saving the boat and save the passengers instead.

Bruce Marshall's acoustic set gets a big thumbs up from me.

Heaven help the man who fights his fear.

It's difficult to get an audience to want to keep up with you, stay present tense. But there's never been a big lag in my career between product. I've constantly tried to pull my audience up into what I'm doing present tense, and they've been usually happy to go there with me.

I had to beat the bags, big time, I had to get out into the den and start screaming and move it through my body.

Shaking the past, making my break, taking control, that's what it takes.

In every moment there is a reason to carry on.

I'm happy about the fact that my audience is very open to new music. They're dying for new music. So all I got to do is get up there and show them what I'm doing, and they go oh yeah, I like that.

I am held by the creator of the world. I am opening, I am unbounded, I am luminous, I am powerful.

My resistance to communication work is because of 15 years with my former wife where we did all this work, but we never got to the core of anything.

My career was about to change radically, in turning 50 I had hit the age where my Dad made a big career and his life started to unravel.

In my career, fun becomes a big factor. If something feels like it's going to be creative and be fun - follow your bliss. Is this where the juice is? Then I go there.

In my career I defined myself by my music, and the danger is that one defines oneself based on popularity. As you know, that goes up and down, and you can't judge how you feel about yourself based on what your sales is.

Running away will never make you free.

I'm alright, nobody worry about me. Why you gotta gimme a fight? Can't you just let it be.

If I don't stay creative and if I don't stay in the studio and keep writing and recording, I get kind of depressed. I can't quite remember what I'm supposed to be doing with myself.

For once in your life, here's your miracle, stand up and fight.

The more we stretch the muscle called compassion and generosity, the stronger we get, the better we feel about ourselves, the more loving we become to the world around us.

A soulmate is the one person whose love is powerful enough to motivate you to meet your soul, to do the emotional work of self-discovery, of awakening.
