More quotes by Amanda Palmer
Life as it should be: all friends, all art, all music, all love, all the time.
Amanda Palmer
I'm still trying to express my truth, my place in the world, my belief.
Amanda Palmer
I get so many ideas for songs, but I'm so seldom disciplined enough to sit down and crank them out.
Amanda Palmer
Meditation, especially for people who dont know very much about it and think its this very hippy dippy thing, can really be powerful, terrifying even, as it lifts the rug up on your subconscious and the dust comes flying out.
Amanda Palmer
I've always felt like an outsider across the board, since day one. The challenge has been to simply not pay attention to my outsider or insider status and just do the work and play the shows and connect with the people. And not even bother to play this game of keeping score, which is what destroys you.
Amanda Palmer
The stage show is, in some sense, highly theatrical. It's definitely not just a band in jeans playing rock and roll.
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
When you cannot joke about the darkness of life, that’s when the darkness takes over.
Amanda Palmer
I hate being ignored.
Amanda Palmer
Crowdfunding as an idea itself isn't new - bands have been doing it since the dawn of time.
Amanda Palmer
If I simply do what I've always done, it's never failed me.
Amanda Palmer
If you're going to make work and you're going to write and you're going to put yourself out there and perform, you will be belittled, you will be insulted, you will be called a standard collection of names, you will be accused, and you just have to stand there and continue to work and find a way to not let those things poison you.
Amanda Palmer
I suffer mornings most of all I feel so powerless and small By ten o'clock I'm back in bed Fighting the jury in my head
Amanda Palmer
I've watched so many women, from Kathleen Hanna all the way up to Taylor Swift, whether they're pop artists or rock stars or fine artists or writers, it is the subhistory of female artists that if you're going to make art, you're also going to have a full-time job of defending your right to make art.
Amanda Palmer
I want to live in a world where Miley (or any female musician) can twerk wildly at 20, wear a full-cover floral hippie mumu at 37, show up at 47 in see-through latex, and pose semi-naked, like Keith & co, on the cover of Rolling Stone at 57 and be APPLAUDED for being so comfortable with her body.
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
Sometimes I have a terrible feeling that I am dying not from the virus, but from being untouchable.
Amanda Palmer
There are so many people, so many artists, so many magazines, so many theater companies, so many people trying to raise money for so many things that it's easy to look around and just feel powerless or helpless, because even if you have some resources, you can't help everybody.
Amanda Palmer
It would nice to live in a world where art can just be art!
Amanda Palmer
Take on the pain and wear it as a shirt.
Amanda Palmer
