More quotes by 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.

Grace Slick
In Germany I ingested the entire contents of the hotel mini-bar before a show and stuck my fingers in this guy's nostrils because I thought they would fit.
Grace Slick
All rock-and-rollers over the age of 50 look stupid and should retire

If I were gay, life would be a lot simpler. I'm kind of annoyed that I'm not.
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
I was appalled that the San Francisco ethic didn't mushroom and envelope the whole world into this loving community of acid freaks. I was very naive.
Grace Slick
I didn't want to write a book. They made me do it.
Grace Slick
Things change so fast, you can't use 1971 ethics on someone born in 1971.
Grace Slick
I'm very fond of drugs.
Grace Slick
You can do any number of things in the music business aside from trying to look like you're 25. To me it's embarrassing.
Grace Slick
Loss either teaches you to persist in the face of suffering, or hardens you into a bitter cynic. Sometimes, it does a little of both.
