More quotes by Jewel
I've always been a workhorse, and I've been supporting myself since I was 15.
Jewel
Love bravely, live bravely, be courageous there's really nothing to lose.
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 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 never found much comfort in overly organized religion of any sort.
Jewel
Suffering is everywhere. Don't ever think it isn't. So are miracles. Don't ever think they aren't.
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 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
Everything is temporary if you give it enough time.
Jewel
I love vulnerability. It's what keeps me soft and from becoming emotionally calcified.
Jewel
People living their lives for you on TV They say they're better than you, and you agree.
Jewel
I find you get out of people what you put into them.
Jewel
The savages are upon me and I feel my flesh burn beneath the teeth of their indifference.
Jewel
When you're standing in deep water And you're bailing yourself out with a straw And when you're drowning in deep water And you wake up making love to a wall Well it's these little time that help to remind It's nothing without love, love, love
Jewel
Lots of people have gone from public housing to do great things in the world and have a tremendous sense of duty to their fellow man because of it.
Jewel
You have to realize: OK, I don't know how to solve a political problem, I don't know how to solve the pollution problem... all I know is in my own life, I need to figure out some sense of purpose, I need to figure out how to be happy... and I'm willing.
Jewel
Love is a flame neither timid nor tame.
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
Worry is wasteful and useless in times like these.
Jewel
Self worth sets the standard that life meets.
