More quotes by Debbie Harry
I don't really memorize every little thing I have to do because then I start to think about it too much! I like to keep it in the here and now and not what's coming up.
Debbie Harry
Working as a solo artist has given me a confidence that I didn't have with Blondie.
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
I could be a housewife… I guess I’ve vacuumed a couple of times.
Debbie Harry
And I wasn't convinced that I was the most talented person in the world.
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
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.

I don't mind if my skull ends up on a shelf as long as it's got my name on it.
Debbie Harry
I really am a mystic. I don't know where I got it from.
Debbie Harry
If you were a painter and a rock and roll musician and weren't established in either - to be an artist today you have to be as much a businessman to succeed, you have to spend an equal amount of time doing business as you spend doing your craft.

In music the mystical element is definitely there all the time, and one can see it.
Debbie Harry
It's scary times for humanity, it seems. But as my octogenarian father tells me, The world has seen harder times, and the world will survive. The arc of history is long, and the mess we're currently making is just a blip.
Debbie Harry
And New Year's Eve is very, very important to me.
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
But as a writer and performer, I want to get paid for what I do.
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
How can one be a woman and not be a feminist? That's my question.
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 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
