More quotes by Carly Simon
Life is a dream even in its most painful moments, it's a dream that we can dance to.
Carly Simon
We need role models who are going to break the mold.
Carly Simon
All men are created equal and all women are created equal as well, but [equality] seems much clearer when it comes to race issues. In the realms of man/woman, man/man, woman/woman love, it seems all up for grabs now. We are exploring so much, but I think we gotta go for the fight for all equality first.
Carly Simon
I had a mastectomy in 1998, and then chemo.
Carly Simon
It's like The Mold in Dr. Florey's Coat, about the discovery of penicillin. Out of these strange accidents come huge discoveries. A certain purple bleeds into red and all of a sudden you have something unexpected.
Carly Simon
So I suppose this slightly mature fashion sense happened because of what I had.
Carly Simon
I had this terrible stammer, so I couldn't really speak properly until I was 16 or 17.
Carly Simon
I try to get to those peculiar and particular things that you never think of to say.
Carly Simon
There was a French singer, Francoise Hardy - I used to look at her pictures and try to dress like her.
Carly Simon
I haven't got time for the pain.
Carly Simon
I've gone through the village of my songwriting and my artistry, and I've gone through lots of different phases, including one where it has been very quiet and abandoned me for a few years.
Carly Simon
I've always thought of myself as being a warrior. When you actually have a battle, it's better than when you don't know who to fight.
Carly Simon
Being in this business for as long as I've been in it, it's sort of like living in a town or a city before the war and then after the war and then during the reconstruction and then during the time that it sprawls out to the malls.
Carly Simon
I had some dreams, they were clouds in my coffee.
Carly Simon
The advancements that women have made are very threatening to men in the job place. There haven't been that many women in politics. If you look at the conventions, it's kind of pathetic how many men are the heads of companies. On the other hand, I'm not sure what the reality should be.
Carly Simon
I used the physical scar of my breast cancer operation, the scar that I have across my chest as a metaphor for all kinds of scars.
Carly Simon
I took it to heart that in order to be a good person you never said anything mean about anybody.
Carly Simon
A really strong woman accepts the war she went through and is ennobled by her scars.
Carly Simon
You usually can't tell what's inspiring until you look back on it.
Carly Simon
It didn't matter as much because I'm a singer, not an actress, but my face is more acceptable in a way now than when I first came on the scene, because I'm part black.
