Cyndi Lauper
My music is about a joyful experience. I've learned that if you can affect other people, you should.

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
My mother said I was a little odd as a kid. I was alone a lot, but I didn't feel alone.
Cyndi Lauper

Cyndi Lauper
In the darkest place, shed the brightest light.

Cyndi Lauper
When I sing I have a lot of visions. Like what's happening now in my life.
