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

Through literacy you can begin to see the universe. Through music you can reach anybody. Between the two there is you, unstoppable.

Things change so fast, you can't use 1971 ethics on someone born in 1971.
Grace Slick
Image
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.

I said I'd be honest, I never said I'd be consistant.

'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.

I didn't want to write a book. They made me do it.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

I don't want to see old people doing rap or rock and roll. It makes me cringe.

Anyone who's 71 years old would look ridiculous singing rock.
