More quotes by Amy Winehouse
I think that we have to be aware that people are allowed to make mistakes
Amy Winehouse
People think stage school is a little star factory but the truth is kids like me learned about being in a team situation and going out to work earlier than a lot of kids did. I don't know anyone from drama school who's now sitting on their arse doing nothing.
Amy Winehouse

Amy Winehouse
All the songs I write are about human dynamics, whether it's with girlfriends, boyfriends, or family.

When I'm nervous, I stutter, and I had to keep stopping and starting.
Amy Winehouse
Some men do think I'm a psycho bunny-boiler.
Amy Winehouse
I love to live and I live to love.
Amy Winehouse
I'm planning my most ambitious tattoo yet. You can never have enough tats.
Amy Winehouse
I've had everything pierced at some point.
Amy Winehouse
I believe in fate and I believe that things happen for a reason, but I don't think that there's a high power, necessarily. I believe in karma very much though.
Amy Winehouse
They tried to make me go to rehab, I said 'No, no, no,'
Amy Winehouse
Girls talk to each other like men talk to each other. But girls have an eye for detail.
Amy Winehouse
