Rape's not something where you just go, "Well, get over it" or "Believe in love and peace, my child, and it'll all be over." Well, fuck you, that isn't the answer. It's a great thought, OK, but you can go and stick crystals up your butt and get on with it. I'm all for love and peace, but that's not the side I work on. If somebody would talk about it, or worse, joke about it, I would be ready to kill. That's not healing. It was a very long time after that before I was able to be with anyone again. And it has never been the same as it was before (unknown)
Adolescence is that time when I think, it can be- it's the cruelest place on Earth. It can really be heartless. (childhood)
Your worst enemies are made when you ignore people. Those boys in America who shot dead classmates recently, didn't do that because they woke up with a positive self image that morning and then felt like slaughtering their friends. No, they felt igno (ignorance)
It's as if the horses have come to take us back, to descend, to find the dark side. By dark I mean what's hidden, not necessarily satanic. (unknown)
If you can't create physical life, you find a life force. If that's in music, that's in music. I started to find this deep, primitive rhythm, and I started to move to it. And I held hands with sorrow, and I danced with her, and we giggled a bit. (life)
When it's all said and done we will lose a piece to a carnivorous vegetarian (vegetarianism)
Musically, I always allow myself to jump off of cliffs. At least that's what it feels like to me. Whether that's what it actually sounds like might depend on what the listener brings to the songs. (unknown)
I usually get myself into situations that cause sparks. I mean I'm a girl that likes the storms. I love feeling alive, I love walking out in the cold in my bare feet and feeling the ice on my toes. (unknown)
I'm obsessed with crocodiles and getting eaten by one. When I hear that someone's been eaten by a crocodile or shark, I just get all gooey. I start salivating. (unknown)
In real life I'm bone dry and when I play I'm a mango and in sex I'm starving to be a dripping mango (unknown)
You're really there to kind of take people to the underworld, ... That's what you do. And everybody has to be given the liberty to bring whoever they want to bring ... the demons, the passionate sides to themselves that they've cut out, whatever it is. (unknown)
I believe in rainbows and all of that. But there are darker colors - the rainbow contains every color. And it's the shade that defines the light. (unknown)
For the most part, pianos are female to me. Sometimes they're dykes, and they're always good fun. (unknown)
The word 'confession,' to me, means needing to be absolved, ... I'm not asking for forgiveness. I'm not asking people to understand. I'd like to think that I tell stories and sometimes my life weaves through it. (unknown)
An ounce of breast milk is even more potent than the finest tequila. (unknown)
My dad likes my success, ... He enjoys it for a lot of reasons. Yes, he's proud of me and so is my mom, but I think that ... he likes it that I stir it up, because he has questioned a lot of the things that he preached about for so many years. (family)
Our whole life revolved around the church, so that the only time I had a break from all that was when I would escape into the piano, ... So I created this whole other world that they couldn't get into. (churches)
The music and the message is foremost for me, ... I want you to take away ideas. That is my mission, my life. Yes I'm in the music business also, and I have to play a serious game of chess. (music)
My father is convinced that if I hadn't been a minister's daughter, I wouldn't have anything to write about (unknown)
To Venus and Back (unknown)
Little Earthquakes,' in truth, was much more like a diary form of things that have happened in my whole life, finding my own voice. This is the record where I declaim my own fire, instead of stealing from the men in my life, which I've done in the past. (unknown)
