More quotes by Debbie Harry
I always work on New Year's Eve, no matter what.
Debbie Harry
Lately I've been believing that music predates speech.
Debbie Harry
I think, actually, that rock and roll is a misconception. It should no longer be a term for music.
Debbie Harry
I don't think that the punk sound really became the punk sound until much later. The punk era wasn't really just one musical sound. There are a lot of differences among Television, the Ramones, and the Talking Heads.
Debbie Harry
I could be a housewife… I guess I’ve vacuumed a couple of times.
Debbie Harry
I love the ACLU and I'm concerned now, especially when it comes to our rights, with current politics and the religious community and the Conservative majority or minority - I don't know who they are.
Debbie Harry
In music the mystical element is definitely there all the time, and one can see it.
Debbie Harry
I'm against the idea that rock stars have to live a life that's completely understandable or predictable to their audience....Maybe I'll just be the mysterious figure that'll never be able to truly be defined. Maybe that's what my thing is.
Debbie Harry
I think that people in general, whether they are male or female, who are inhibited by the clichés of what women are or what men are, really don't like themselves. Because personality traits are not necessarily sexual.
Debbie Harry
But, you know, the issues of humanity and what is fair treatment and good treatment of a fellow human being should not really be based on a personal sense of right and wrong or judgment.
Debbie Harry
How can one be a woman and not be a feminist? That's my question.
Debbie Harry
You always fall for the rascal or the guy who's got a little bit of the devil in him. You can't help it.
Debbie Harry
We wanted to enjoy what we were doing and we had business things we had to straighten out and personnel problems and it sort of took a little time to do it.
Debbie Harry
I do know the effect that music still has on me - I'm completely vulnerable to it. I'm seduced by it.
Debbie Harry
I thought I'd live to a ripe old age, because I always felt there was a lot to do. I had a driven feeling. I always thought in the present.
Debbie Harry
I have a lot of regrets, but I'm not going to think of them as regrets.
Debbie Harry
But as a writer and performer, I want to get paid for what I do.
Debbie Harry
I always think of a voice as an instrument, whether a voice is a trumpet, or violin, or bass. You know what I mean? A horn or wind instrument versus a string instrument. Horn instruments are definitely more toward jazz.
Debbie Harry
Working as a solo artist has given me a confidence that I didn't have with Blondie.
Debbie Harry
In music the mystical element is definitely there all the time, and one can see it. When it comes to rock and roll, when it comes to any kind of industry, it's not there. It's not there. So it's a battle between the two. Music, Industry.
Debbie Harry
