Cynicism
More quotes by Jewel
My whole goal is to keep my spirit intact. If that doesn't happen, none of this is worth it.
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
Without a band, I'm much more free to improvise.
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
But maybe if we are surrounded in beauty Someday we will become what we see
Jewel
It's just an inch from me to you depending on what map you use.
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 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
The savages are upon me and I feel my flesh burn beneath the teeth of their indifference.
Jewel
Everything is temporary if you give it enough time.
Jewel
I have this theory - that if we're told we're bad, then that's the only ideal we'll ever have.
Jewel
Love is a flame neither timid nor tame.
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
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
I have a life that I enjoy I try and value the things that I think are worth valuing and everything else is icing. You know, it is a kick to go down the red carpet in that dress and then you go back home.
Jewel
We've made houses for hatred. It's time we made a place where people's souls may be seen and made safe.
Jewel
If I could tell the world just one thing, it would be that we are all ok. And not to worry because worry is wasteful and useless in times like these.
Jewel
Suffering is everywhere. Don't ever think it isn't. So are miracles. Don't ever think they aren't.
Jewel
Hard times make you bitter or make you more compassionate.
Jewel
Well in case you failed to notice, In case you failed to see, This is my heart bleeding before you, This is me down on my knees These foolish games are tearing me apart Your thoughtless words are breaking my heart You're breaking my heart
Jewel
