There is an attitude that we should be able to have everything. No, you shouldn't be able to have anything. I'd like a helicopter, but I can't afford a helicopter, so I don't buy one. People are buying stuff they can't afford on credit. I bought my Ford hybrid with cash.

Prancing around on stage is not the entire purpose of my life.

Image
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.

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 used to take his paints on the road. I don't do that. Either I'm a singer or a painter. I'm not good at multi-tasking.

I'm a commercial artist, both in music and art.
Grace Slick
Image
Through literacy you can begin to see the universe. Through music you can reach anybody. Between the two there is you, unstoppable.

Image
Rock roll is not obscure, it's really easy to understand. So is my painting.
Grace Slick
Image
If you don't own the stage, you shouldn't be in rock n' roll.

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.

In school, I learned about artists and how they were free to express themselves. I was allergic to conformity, and the lifestyle attracted me. I wanted to express myself in a way that slammed people up against the wall.

I'm 5 feet 7 but my legs weren't long enough to be a big-time model. From the knees up, everything is long but from ankle to knee, if I was in proportion, I'd be 5 feet 9.

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.

I don't like to be told what to do at all. That's unfortunate because a lot of people come up with good ideas and can direct you.
