More quotes by Cyndi Lauper
I've got a Grammy and Emmy, I'd like to have a Tony.
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
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
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
There have been great things that happened to me.
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
In the darkest place, shed the brightest light.
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
Everything does go in a circle.
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
Humour is a great vehicle for getting a message across. If you get too serious, you could die of starch.
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
If you have intercourse you run the risk of dying and the ramifications of death are final.
Cyndi Lauper
Somebody did complain to me and tell me that my clothes were so loud they couldn't hear me sing.
Cyndi Lauper
I've always wondered what it would be like if somebody from outer space landed with three heads. Then all of a sudden everybody else wouldn't look so bad, huh? Well, OK you're a little different from me but, hey, ya got one head.
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
I wanna go south and get some more. Hey, they say that a stitch in time saves nine, they say I better stop or I'll go blind.
Cyndi Lauper
People used to throw rocks at me for my clothes, now they wanna know where I buy them.
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.
Cyndi Lauper
Understand where it is you want to go. Then picture yourself there. If you can picture yourself there, then you can be there. Bottom line.
