Quote

There must be an angel, Playing with my heart. And when I think that I'm alone, It seems there's more of us at home...

The worst thing someone gets is isolated. Isolation is the darkest part of any condition. You can live with almost any condition if you're living within a community of people who can share a common understanding. We create these communities from women who share common conditions, and those mothers carry each other through.

I'm a female but I have a masculine side and I'm not going to negate that part of myself.

For me, pointing and clicking my phone is absolutely fine. People say that isn't the art of photography but I don't agree.

The general population still thinks HIV is something that came in the 80s and went away, or that it only affects the gay population or intravenous drug users.

I think it takes a lot to put oneself in a place where, you know, that thing about Feel the fear and do it anyway. You wonder what the driving force is that makes you want to do that and not just stay in a safer place.

The dynamic between two individuals starts off with everything warm and nice and fabulous and good. Working and living together can serve you quite well, but when it starts to go wrong - oh, boy!

I'm not intensely private - I talk a great deal about my life and my work - I just don't play the game to excess.

I was born in 1954. My parents were brought up in the war years, and life was hard.

What's really interesting is when you get a brand-new wave that has no connection to anything else. It always reflects society. The flappers would cut the dresses and make them looser, they smoked, their hair was short. It was a rebellion against the corset and the Edwardian era.

You have to be quite grounded, and I don't know what that is. Sometimes, that means being vulnerable.

We all come from women, and there's something extraordinary about the mothers who raised us.

One wouldn't want to have the same dilemmas at 50 as one had at 15. And indeed I don't. I have a very different take on life.

To be human is to have a whole spectrum of these experiences that arise within us.

You're never quite sure where the song is going, because you might not find the word to rhyme with the end of the line. You have to find associative meaning to get you there. So it's rather like doing a crossword puzzle backwards. A kind of strange, three-dimensional, abstract crossword puzzle.

Ask yourself: Have you been kind today? Make kindness your daily modus operandi and change your world.

The music scene in the '70s was like the United Kingdom in the '70s - we had a lot of unemployment, we had inflation, we had a lot of strikes going on, on a national scale, and a lot of discontent. That was reflected in the music.

Each individual is as individual as their fingerprints, and I think that's extraordinary.

We think that this is just our world and we don't know what other people are thinking. Music actually is a phenomenal connector in that respect. It's a special language that defines certain boundaries and connects people in a particular way, a very emotional way, I have found.

There's a lot of women's organisations, but they're all working separately. If you get people together, as a collaborative voice, it's strong.

I grew up in a middle class household with parents, went to good schools, and never feared for anything, never wanted for anything that was really important. For all of us living in this world, all of us who have the resources, for us to not dedicate ourselves to giving something back, is to leave the world a lesser place.
