I saw 'The Artist.' It's really beautiful and it's all done to the letter with all the silent film techniques. The costumes were amazing and the dog is so good.

More quotes by Florence Welch
I made music with my friend, who we called Isabella Machine to which I was Florence Robot. When I was about an hour away from my first gig, I still didn't have a name, so I thought 'Okay, I'll be Florence Robot/Isa Machine', before realising that name was so long it'd drive me mad.

The first album, for better or for worse, was done over from the ages of 17-22, with a couple of different producers. Some of it was recorded in an old swimming pool, some of it was recorded in a synagogue - it kind of was all over the place.
Florence Welch
I used to dress like an eight-year-old boy. Traveling has inspired me to be more experimental.
Florence Welch
I can't just have one painting - I need to cover the wall in paintings. It's the same with my music. I want to mix everything together to create more.
Florence Welch
I definitely have a real self-destructive streak.
Florence Welch
I can't wait to get on stage, because there you don't worry about whether you'll ever get married because your life is insane, or whether you'll ever have another boyfriend again, you don't worry about the typical boundaries of how your life has to be.
Florence Welch
Love is horrible. I mean, when you're in love, it's like a sickness. Such madness.
Florence Welch
I'm completely in love with the world but also terrified of it. It creates some overwhelming feelings. Wanting to battle out that joy and fear is part of my music.
Florence Welch
I dyed my hair red when I was ten and when I was 11 - in my goth period - I dyed it black and I was really into witchcraft. I made mini shrines in my bedroom with candles and tried to cast spells to make the boy in the next class fall in love with me. I don't think he did.
Florence Welch
The stage is a place where I can be wholly myself. Even though you're in front of people almost to be judged, it is a place without judgement.
Florence Welch
I started off singing in church as a child. The sound of voices coming together, that was my first moment of touching something outside of myself.
Florence Welch
I wanted to be a witch when I was a kid. I was obsessed with witchcraft. At school, me and my two friends had these spell books I always wanted a more magical reality. I had a little shrine at home and I did a spell to try and make the boy in the other class fall in love with me.
Florence Welch
At the beginning of my career I was going through a really weird phase of dressing in boys clothes. I would only wear one American Apparel T-shirt and shorts and brogues the whole year round. Not the same T-shirt, obviously, but one style of American Apparel T-shirt. I think I was going through a tomboy stage.
Florence Welch
For me, ‘Dog Days’ symbolizes apocalyptic euphoria, chaotic freedom and running really, really fast with your eyes closed.
Florence Welch
On stage, you can use your emotions. It's the place where you can channel them. They have a purpose.
Florence Welch
I try to maintain a healthy dose of daydreaming, to remain sane.
Florence Welch
Everything has such order and everyone is so focused on doing what they're doing that no one ever pays attention to you spinning and dancing around supermarkets. It's something you find in places like supermarkets and airports, where everything is really ordered. There's something about those places that makes you feel really anonymous.
Florence Welch
Having a soul, they say, is like taking sadness and turning it into something beautiful.
Florence Welch
If you asked me to go back to being 14 or 15, I couldn't - it was a terrifying time. I was so awkward in my own skin. I used to hide behind my hair because I was so ridiculously self-conscious.
Florence Welch
I think I should get a bigger between-the-song persona, so then I'm not wandering around the stage like some mad old auntie that's saying hello to people and falling over.
