If people don't like what I'm doing I really don't have time to hear it. I'm doing something good with my life and I challenge them to do the same.
Vedder quotes
Crowd: OLE OLE OLE OLE [Eddie on stage waiting for the crowd to settle down]"Alright...Haha.....OK....OK."[laughs and shakes his head] "They just won't stop..............[Eddie gets on guitar and starts singing Ole Ole Ole Ole]" Pavellon Olimpic Badalona, BCN September 1st 2006
Vedder
Vedder has a variety of comments about God and/or belief, at one point he was saying, "When you're out in the desert, you can't believe the amount of stars. We've sent mechanisms out there, and they haven't found anything. They've found different colours of sand, and rings, and gasses, but nobody's shown me anything that makes me feel secure in what happens afterwards. All I really believe in is this moment, like right now."




Vedder Eddie quotes
“You know, punk bands now sell with one record -- their first or second record -- sell 10 times the amount of records than the Ramones did throughout their career with 20-something records. That's why I go over to Johnny Ramone's house and do yard work three times a week, just to absolve some of the guilt.”

Vedder Eddie
You kill yourself and you make a big old sacrifice and try to get your revenge. That all you're gonna end up with is a paragraph in a newspaper. In the end, it does nothing. Nothing changes. The world goes on and you're gone. The best revenge is to live on and prove yourself.
