More quotes by Cyndi Lauper
I have never been prouder to be a lifelong New Yorker than I am today with the passage of marriage equality.
Cyndi Lauper
It's that anonymous person who meanders through the streets and feels what's happening there, feels the pulse of the people, who's able to create.
Cyndi Lauper
People used to throw rocks at me for my clothes, now they wanna know where I buy them.
Cyndi Lauper
Somebody did complain to me and tell me that my clothes were so loud they couldn't hear me sing.
Cyndi Lauper
If you want a strong society, it has to be inclusive. If you have to push a boulder up a hill, do you want 10 people or 100? If you weed out colour or gender, you get 10.
Cyndi Lauper
On my darkest days, I wear my brightest colors.
Cyndi Lauper
Fame doesn't redeem you. It takes a long time to get there, and when you're finally there, you realise you still have authority figures telling you what to do.
Cyndi Lauper
If you think you're hearing something and you can't think what it is. If you feel a quiet longing lift your heart into the wind. There you'll find my kindred spirit. There you'll meet me as a friend. It is just a kindred spirit and a song to let you in.
Cyndi Lauper
There's ageism in everything. I don't give a hoot. It isn't what other people think it's what you think. But it's hard to come to terms with getting older. I admire people like Vivienne Westwood.
Cyndi Lauper
I don't know many people who don't have somebody in their family who's a part of the gay-lesbian-bisexual-transgender community. It's not like they're aliens or outsiders. This is family.
Cyndi Lauper
Your own shoes are hard enough to fill, but somebody else's are even tougher.
Cyndi Lauper
I lucked out when I started to sing. I'd already experienced failing at everything else.
Cyndi Lauper
It's a strange lesson to learn in life that your differences, the things that make you feel uncomfortable about yourself are what will help you to grow into who you are. Those are your gifts.
Cyndi Lauper
People can save the world by the way they think and by the way they behave and what they hold to be important.
Cyndi Lauper
I come from a line of great Sicilian women, and their mentality is to endure and push through to the other side.
Cyndi Lauper
I always sang. I wanted to be in a band with my sister, and I was, at 11. At 12, I started writing seriously, and that was my pacifier all through high school - that and painting.
Cyndi Lauper
My torso is short, but my arms are really long and gangly and my legs and my neck, and my feet and hands are really long, and I look like a duck.
Cyndi Lauper
If you fall, I will catch you. I will be waiting, time after time.
Cyndi Lauper
My career never went like anyone else’s, so I never followed anyone.
Cyndi Lauper
I get the greatest feeling when I'm singing. It's other-worldly. Your feet are anchored into the Earth and into this energy force that comes up through your feet and goes up the top of your head and maybe you're holding hands with the angels or the stars, I have no idea.
