Death is like taking an intermission when you can't come back. I like living and being around.

More quotes by Grace Slick
I'm very fond of drugs.
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.
Grace Slick
I left rock and roll professionally at about 49. That's too long as far as I'm concerned. Some people can do it it depends on what you were.
Grace Slick
Anyone who's 71 years old would look ridiculous singing rock.
Grace Slick
Things change so fast, you can't use 1971 ethics on someone born in 1971.
Grace Slick
Feed your head. Feed your head. Feed your head
Grace Slick
Prancing around on stage is not the entire purpose of my life.
Grace Slick
Man is the only animal that knows he's going to die, so we invent a heaven to keep from going crazy. Most people are hypnotized by organized religion from childhood.
Grace Slick
The same person is coming through in a different medium.... My art is simple, direct and definite.
Grace Slick
Rock roll is not obscure, it's really easy to understand. So is my painting.
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
My parents were very open about what kind of talent I had. They never pushed me to become an accountant because they knew that would be just absolutely ridiculous. So they were encouraging in what I am able to do with some success.
Grace Slick
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
Being in a rock n' roll band was like being in a Sherman tank. Nothing got to you. You were surrounded and protected by men.
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.
Grace Slick
You start out performing because it's fun, then you learn more things and you want to do more than go Na-na-na-na on a stage. The production end is interesting, writing is interesting, and you learn to coordinate all these things.
Grace Slick
When you learn that a truth is a lie, anger follows.
Grace Slick
I like being in a recording studio. I like watching a song go from the simplicity of the original music.
Grace Slick
I'm not very good at multi-tasking. Most people aren't, but they think they are. The mind is really better when you're really focused on one thing.
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
