I think I'm constantly in a state of adjustment.

My sunglasses are like my guitar.

We go through life. We shed our skins. We become ourselves.

To be an artist — actually, to be a human being in these times — it’s all difficult. … What matters is to know what you want and pursue it.

Never let go of that fiery sadness called desire.

Where does it all lead? What will become of us? These were our young questions, and young answers were revealed. It leads to each other. We become ourselves.

Life isn't some vertical or horizontal line -- you have your own interior world, and it's not neat.

I imagined myself as Frida to Diego, both muse and maker. I dreamed of meeting an artist to love and support and work with side by side.

Swift is the arrow, dark is the thorn, the slate is clean, the future awaits, awake.

Make your interactions with people transformational, not just transactional.

To me, punk rock is the freedom to create, freedom to be successful, freedom to not be successful, freedom to be who you are. It's freedom.

When you are looking for love, then love is spreading its net to catch you.

Waving the flag at the 1976 Olympics wasn't my idea. It was too much apple pie and ice cream. Not that I don't love my country, but I felt it was my victory up there, I put all the time into it.

I filled my sketchbook with drawings, very much as any educated girl of my generation might have kept a diary.

Hee that gives thee a bone, would not have thee die.

Artists deserve to make a living

My music comes from my emotion, always.

. . . the companions of our childhood always possess a certain power over our minds which hardly any later friend can obtain.

Crossroads, what a disaster. Hundreds of millions of dollars wasted and no one is held responsible....people ought to be asking, 'What are you in business for?'

You can't play well if you don't look good.

My driving career is low, but musically, it's all pretty high. It's a test of patience, takes forever, but I guess that's the nature of the thing of life. I'm glad to be living the musical life.
