We'll fight, not out of spite For someone must stand up for what's right 'Cause where there's a man who has no voice There ours shall go singing My hands are small I know But they're not yours, they are my own But they're not yours, they are my own I am never broken In the end only kindness matters In the end only kindness matters

Jewel
It's just an inch from me to you depending on what map you use.
Jewel
I don't see the world unless I see it in ink.
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
I guess I’m a Gemini through and through, but I’m mercurial. I get bored doing the same things.
Jewel
I know, you love me and soon you will see, you were meant for me and I was meant for you
Jewel
The savages are upon me and I feel my flesh burn beneath the teeth of their indifference.
Jewel
Life in a shelter or on the streets puts homeless kids and youth at a higher risk for physical and sexual assault and abuse, physical illness, including HIV/AIDS
Jewel
I was homeless and I was in San Diego and I started singing in a local coffee shop and people started coming to hear me sing.
Jewel
I used to love reading when I was little, and then it became difficult and I didn't understand why. I thought, what a bummer, my passion all drained out of me. So when I found out I had dyslexia, it was like, oh, that's what it was.
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.
