"I came here for a reason. I didn't come here to be a mother. I didn't come here to be a nun. And I did not come here to be a cleaning lady. I came here to be a poet."
"I believe I was definitely sent down here to take people away for a little while, to make them happy."
"I'm timeless, I got that Dickensian, London street-urchin look in high school. I'll never be in style, but I'll always be different."
"The princess on-stage is my combination of Natalia Makarova and Greta Garbo and the elegant rock & roll that I love...it's hard to be a fairy princess fifty percent of the time and just be a nice lady the other half. But I like my real self better. I don't walk around the house in dripping chiffon."
"I remember being in Aspen, having just written Landslide and Rhiannon walking around in the snow in a bunny coat, a pair of patchwork jeans that I'd spend my last $30 on, and these very high platform shoes that were kind of beige, kind of cream-colored. They had humongous platform that made me really tall so that I didn't have to cut of the fabulous bottoms of the jeans. Even when platforms went completely out of style, I kept wearing them because I didn't want to go back to being five feet three in a pair of heels."
"Believe me, when I stop singing I'm gonna have a garage sale like you're not gonna believe. We're talking chiffon, chiffon, and more chiffon."
"I do not want a band of musicians who play for the money. I want a band of angels who play for the love."
"So we make our choices, when there is no choice.
And we listen to their voices, ignoring our own voice"
