More quotes by Grace Slick
Feed your head. Feed your head. Feed your head
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
Prancing around on stage is not the entire purpose of my life.
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
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
I stopped dropping acid for a while after my daughter was born. It's hard to keep an eye on the kid while you're hallucinating.
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 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
'Feminist comedy,' practically an oxymoron, had a couple of good years after WWII. Chalk it up to the forced female autonomy that occurred during wartime, when Rosie the Riveter went to work in the factories, constructing the Allies' war machines while taking charge of the finances, the home, and the children.
Grace Slick
Anyone who's 71 years old would look ridiculous singing rock.
Grace Slick
I don't want to see old people doing rap or rock and roll. It makes me cringe.
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
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
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.
Grace Slick
All rock-and-rollers over the age of 50 look stupid and should retire
Grace Slick
Death is like taking an intermission when you can't come back. I like living and being around.
Grace Slick
Jerry Garcia and the Grateful Dead did as much for mankind as any president.
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.
