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.

More quotes by Jewel
My life has been full of struggles - coming from a troubled home, moving out when I was fifteen, ending up homeless by eighteen. The one thing I always knew was being jaded and bitter was equal to letting life win.
Jewel
I'm having a bad day. I am not size six. My legs are not skinny as sticks, and dammit, someone's got to pay. I'm afraid that I can't satisfy myself and that my happiness depends on someone else. I feel weak, so you're gonna take the fall. You're so shallow.
Jewel
Self worth sets the standard that life meets.
Jewel
I was thinking that I might fly today. Just to disprove all the things you say... please be careful with me, I'm sensitive, and I'd like to stay that way.
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.

I grew up bar-singing and saw all kinds of ways people tried to outrun their emotional pain. It doesn't work. You end up with the original pain, as well as new pain added on top of it from the tactics you used trying to avoid it in the first place. It's best to take a deep breath, bolster yourself, and walk through it.
Jewel
I've always been a workhorse, and I've been supporting myself since I was 15.
Jewel
You have to be an ally in a difficult time and not turn on yourself with self-shaming thoughts, which makes facing pain intolerable.
Jewel
Most of us don't spend any time knowing ourselves. We just keep reacting.
Jewel
I grew up doing live tours and playing in bars, so it was what I love to do.
Jewel
Words can crush things that are unseen.
Jewel
No longer lend your strength to that which you wish to be free from.
Jewel
I wanted to be an honest writer and show my ugliness as much as I showed my hopes or goodness. And that really sculpted the type of artist I've become.
Jewel
I will gather myself around my faith, for light does the darkness most fear.
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
It's just an inch from me to you depending on what map you use.
Jewel
I say to myself, sometimes the tide is just out. But it always comes back in again.
Jewel
I consider myself a product of Alaska. The love and the debt that I feel to my home state, you always want your hometown to be the proudest of you.
Jewel
We must demand more not from each other, but more from ourselves
Jewel
It's been too many nights of being with to now be suddenly without.
