More quotes by Amanda Palmer
I do what I want. I try to be nice to everybody. When I fail, I try to apologize.
Amanda Palmer
I think people have been obsessed with the wrong question, which is how do we make people pay for music? What if we started asking, how do we let people pay for music?
Amanda Palmer
When you connect with people, they want to help you.
Amanda Palmer
You tour and you work hard and you take care of your fans and very real things lead to other real things. There's never been some fantastic fluke or break in my career, it has all been very slow and steady.
Amanda Palmer
If your writing is good, if it resonates, if it connects the dots for anybody out there, the lovers will come, the haters will come, support will come — sometimes in the form of money, sometimes in the form of something less expected — and it balances.
Amanda Palmer
If you love people enough, they will give you everything.
Amanda Palmer
If you want the world to pay for projects, you have to be able to display why you're worthy.
Amanda Palmer
If I were a guy, it would be, you know, just a different set of problems I have to carry along.
Amanda Palmer
I firmly believe in music being as free as possible. Unlocked. Shared and spread. In order for artists to survive and create, their audiences need to step up and directly support them.
Amanda Palmer
There's something advantageous about being a woman in rock versus, say, a woman in chemistry or construction. There's definitely a built-in sexism across the board, but I think you're afforded a degree of freedom in rock because, historically, the rules have been flexible.
Amanda Palmer
There's a part of me that is really, really happy with all of my success lately because of what it can get me and what it can buy me in the fact that my music will hopefully reach more people. But it also makes me a little bit miserable because the minute the spotlight is on you, people start flinging sh*t at you for whatever reason.
Amanda Palmer
I was just a very dark kid. My family was complicated.
Amanda Palmer
When you cannot joke about the darkness of life, that’s when the darkness takes over.
Amanda Palmer
I remember being a teenager and being really impressed by let's sit around and b*tch people, and I have so little time for those people nowadays.
Amanda Palmer
Donald Trump is going to make punk rock great again.
Amanda Palmer
I feel that part of my life's artwork is creatively dealing with all this negativity and anger and rage and hatred coming from whatever corners it's coming from and somehow manifesting all of that anger into something positive, which is such a hard job.
Amanda Palmer
There's a huge cloud of shame around art and business being seen as bedfellows.
Amanda Palmer
In both the art and the business worlds, the difference between the amateurs and the professionals is simple: The professionals know they're winging it. The amateurs pretend they're not.
Amanda Palmer
I hate being ignored.
Amanda Palmer
In other words, let's give our young women the right weapons to fight with as they charge naked into battle, instead of ordering them to get back in the house and put some goddamn clothes on.
