More quotes by Grace Slick
I don't imagine my parents are too excited about my kind of life. The surrounding weirdness bothers them. Still, I think they're pretty good. Their lives are based on what their friends think, just like ours are.
Grace Slick
People say Altamont was the end of the 60s. It was unfortunate, but at the time we didnt think of it as signaling anything. The fact that nobody got killed at Woodstock is amazing because that was half a million people. We only had 300,000 at Altamont.
Grace Slick
It's really a drag to sit around when you're old, and think, 'Ah, gee, I never went to France.' Go to France. Life is very short you've got to pack it all in there.
Grace Slick
If I were gay, life would be a lot simpler. I'm kind of annoyed that I'm not.
Grace Slick
Rock roll is not obscure, it's really easy to understand. So is my painting.
Grace Slick
Prancing around on stage is not the entire purpose of my life.
Grace Slick
With all due respect to Mick Jagger, who is one of my idols, I think it's a mistake to leap around and sing at 53. When I started, there weren't any women I looked up to. It was Mick. I never saw anybody go on a stage and have that tongue-in-cheek attitude. It was all straight, including the Beatles. I love his attitude, hands on hips and lips out.

Things change so fast, you can't use 1971 ethics on someone born in 1971.

It takes a little work to be a vegan, but now it's really possible to have tasty stuff and it's better for you. I say the best test is go as far as you can and see how you feel. Personally, I feel great.
Grace Slick
When you learn that a truth is a lie, anger follows.
Grace Slick
I am not strict vegan, because I'm a hedonist pig. If I see a big chocolate cake that is made with eggs, I'll have it.
Grace Slick
Feed your head. Feed your head. Feed your head
Grace Slick
Through literacy you can begin to see the universe. Through music you can reach anybody. Between the two there is you, unstoppable.
Grace Slick
You can't make people change, but the organizers of WorldFest hope that people consider being vegetarian for both moral and health reasons
Grace Slick
I'm a commercial artist, both in music and art.
Grace Slick
I like Daughtry, I like Nickelback, I like Dave Matthews. I like Beyonce - she's a really good entertainer.
Grace Slick
When you get older, it's not about what you did that you regret, it's what you didn't do.
Grace Slick
I said I'd be honest, I never said I'd be consistant.
Grace Slick
The way I paint is similar to rock in that you don't stand around and say, 'Gee, what are they talking about?' Rock is simple, blunt, colorful. Same with my paintings. You don't stand back and wonder what it is. That's Jim Morrison, that's a panda, that's a scene on the West Coast. It's not abstract.

Jerry Garcia and the Grateful Dead did as much for mankind as any president.
