More quotes by Grace Slick
Things change so fast, you can't use 1971 ethics on someone born in 1971.
Grace Slick
I don't want to see old people doing rap or rock and roll. It makes me cringe.
Grace Slick
I said I'd be honest, I never said I'd be consistant.
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 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
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
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
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
Feed your head. Feed your head. Feed your head
Grace Slick
If you don't own the stage, you shouldn't be in rock n' roll.
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 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
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
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
I do what I love to do, what I choose to do.
Grace Slick
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.
Grace Slick
All rock-and-rollers over the age of 50 look stupid and should retire
Grace Slick
I'm a commercial artist, both in music and art.
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 don t wanna see old people on a rock & roll stage.
