More quotes by Jewel
Love is a flame neither timid nor tame.
Jewel
I love vulnerability. It's what keeps me soft and from becoming emotionally calcified.
Jewel
The things you fear are undefeatable, not by their nature, but by your approach.
Jewel
I guess I’m a Gemini through and through, but I’m mercurial. I get bored doing the same things.
Jewel
Optimism is a choice. Cynicism isn't smarter - it's just safer.
Jewel
I’m somebody who, as a child, had a lot of insecurity about stable housing, where I was going to be living, if I was going to have a roof over my head, all those types of things. And I know the impact it can have on you psychologically and emotionally.
Jewel
I get bored very easily. I have a voracious appetite and I do not feel alive if I'm repeating something I'm good at. So I'm always looking for new challenges.
Jewel
Most of us don't spend any time knowing ourselves. We just keep reacting.
Jewel
I have hundreds and hundreds of songs waiting to get on albums, but I don't know about the three-month radio tours and if I'll be interested in that. I haven't figured it out, but I will definitely be doing music, whether it is independent or with a major record label.
Jewel
I've always been a workhorse, and I've been supporting myself since I was 15.
Jewel
I don't feel like I've changed as much as radio formats have changed.
Jewel
Hard times make you bitter or make you more compassionate.
Jewel
Love bravely, live bravely, be courageous there's really nothing to lose.
Jewel
So what are we given? We're also given, my generation, the disillusionment of our parents.
Jewel
I love to be alone with life. I love to study simple things: the light as it filters in a window the music of a room full of people chatting a horizon.
Jewel
I want love to be simple. I want to trust without thinking. I want to be generous with my affection and patience and love unconditionally. It is easier to love a person with their flaws than to weed through them. I want to love the whole person, not parts and this is how I want to be loved.
Jewel
Everything is temporary if you give it enough time.
Jewel
We can't underestimate the value of silence. We need to create ourselves, need to spend time alone. If you don't, you risk not knowing yourself and not realizing your dreams.
Jewel
People living their lives for you on TV They say they're better than you, and you agree.
Jewel
On my own I generally have very messy hair, wear jeans and sneakers.
