Amanda Palmer
Twitter fascinates me because it's real. It feels kind of unreal, but it makes very real things happen.
Amanda Palmer
The cool thing too, as you get older, you get way better at identifying who's an ally and who isn't. And who has good, positive, let's make all this sh*t better and let's try to have fun and fix sh*t people as opposed to let's sit around and b*tch and berate people.
Amanda Palmer
It feels like it is a daily work and an ongoing task to undo all of the f - - g programming that I have had all my life about who I am supposed to be and how I'm supposed to look and that I'm supposed to win. It's a daily deconstruction of all that bullshit.
Amanda Palmer
Collecting the dots. Then connecting them. And then sharing the connections with those around you. This is how a creative human works. Collecting, connecting, sharing.
Amanda Palmer
I kind of rely on my artist friends to make my physical music worth buying by having them all come together and create beautiful artwork that everyone is gonna want to own to support my record.
Amanda Palmer
The perfect tools aren't going to help us if we can't face each other and give and receive fearlessly, but more important, to ask without shame.
