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
Nothing is crueller than children who come from good homes.

I'm bisexual, but it's not the sort of thing I spent a lot of time thinking about. I've slept with girls I've slept with guys, so I guess that's what they call it! I'm not anti trying to use language to simplify our lives.
Amanda Palmer
I draw the line at letting people into my songwriting cave. To me, that's where the alchemy happens and where the mystery is.
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
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
