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

Carly Simon
You know, when I was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1997 I realized I had spent too long arranging my attitude.
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
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
Worrying too much about other people's ears and not my own, I lost my way.
Carly Simon
Life is a dream even in its most painful moments, it's a dream that we can dance to.
Carly Simon
