More quotes by Buffy Sainte-Marie
I feel sorry for people of good heart who have never had a chance to learn the realities of Native American everything - not just our history but the sweetness and the beauty and the reasons why were so close to Mother Earth.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
Another time factor is output: proofing and printing. That is, getting your work out of the computer and onto paper and having it satisfy you. It can be time consuming and expensive.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
The artistic process in digital art is very much the same as for making other kinds of paintings.
Buffy Sainte-Marie

Buffy Sainte-Marie
Music has been my playmate, my lover, and my crying towel.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
I had no reason to want to copy anybody else. What I wanted to give audiences for the few minutes that I thought my career would last was something unique.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
Take a bunch of little kids to the beach and they all make art. Adults are too stupid to call it art, but it is art. They'll use their imaginations, make drama, make up characters, make pictures in the sand, they'll make up songs that no one's ever heard before. All kids, I think, are creative, but they get it pounded out of them in school.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
The time I save setting up and cleaning up probably balances out by the time I spend on output.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
You have to leave room in life to dream.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
Sixteen million colors in your palette are hard for any artist, especially a beginner, to turn down.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
All the lights on Broadway don't amount to an acre of green.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
I'm trying to entice people, and sometimes my information is very hard hitting. So I've always wanted to have a soft approach.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
The key is in remaining just aloof enough from a painting so that you know when to stop.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
By looking at the questions the kids are asking, we learn the scope of what needs to be done.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
I was playing with sound like I would have played with pots and pans as a kid.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
People sometimes ask me, because of the blacklisting, Do you hate the government? Don't you hate white people? No, it's greed that's the problem.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
I work closely with the printer to get the final print the way I want it.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
Digital imaging allows both groups to rise above the limitations of mess and clutter and mechanics, and apply our talents to creating images limited only by our imaginations.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
There is so much joy in native culture but so much poverty. It's very disturbing.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
All kids, I think, are creative, but they get it pounded out of them in school.
