More quotes by 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 some dreams, they were clouds in my coffee.
Carly Simon
I had a mastectomy in 1998, and then chemo.
Carly Simon
I'm still more comfortable with standards than with my own songs.
Carly Simon
The sound of birds stops the noise in my mind.
Carly Simon
You say we'll soar like two birds through the clouds, but soon you'll cage me on your shelf. I'll never learn to be just me, first by myself.
Carly Simon
You know, people want to honor me, and on the one hand I just don't want to be a poster child but on the other, I want to do something classy and great - something where the residuals will go to the cause.
Carly Simon

Carly Simon
We need role models who are going to break the mold.
Carly Simon
Everyone has problems, and learning to share them is essential. Hiding pain requires an enormous amount of energy sharing it is liberating.
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 haven't got time for the pain.
Carly Simon
I've learned that nobody's perfect, and I don't expect myself to be perfect anymore.
Carly Simon
A really strong woman accepts the war she went through and is ennobled by her scars.
Carly Simon
So many artists who came out during that time, including myself, were able to get on radio. New forms of singer-songwriters developed out of that.
Carly Simon
Then I went through a big Peggy Lee stage, then I became Annie Ross, then Judy Collins.
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
Don't mind if I fall apart. There's more room in a broken heart.
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 took it to heart that in order to be a good person you never said anything mean about anybody.
Carly Simon
