More quotes by Joni Mitchell
I learned from admiration and osmosis.
Joni Mitchell
I never loved a man as far as I could pitch my shoe.
Joni Mitchell
Morgellons is constantly morphing. There are times when it's directly attacking the nervous system, as if you're being bitten by fleas and lice. It's all in the tissue and it's not a hallucination. It was eating me alive, sucking the juices out. I've been sick all my life.
Joni Mitchell
In some ways, my gift for music and writing was born out of tragedy, really, and loss.
Joni Mitchell
I'm irresponsible to my career in order to paint. Because painting is obsessive. I forget to eat. I forget to sleep.
Joni Mitchell
When you're trying to pass on the best of the stuff you're culling to what should be a hungry culture but you have it diminished... that's kind of disappointing.
Joni Mitchell
When you reach that kind of successful pinnacle, it is the nature of the business and the press and everything that they go about tearing you down.
Joni Mitchell
When I came to California, it was the mecca of the world. Every young person on the planet wanted to be here.
Joni Mitchell
People were very protective of me. Overly so. I was in the industry for a long time before I had any idea of what drugs people were doing.
Joni Mitchell
A little lawyer on the tube, he said, its so easy now, anyone can sue.
Joni Mitchell
If you see yourself as a kingly type, then you need your serfs and your army and so on around you.
Joni Mitchell
Do you want - do you want - do you want to dance with me baby?
Joni Mitchell
I could drink a case of you, darlin'...and I would still be on my feet, yes I would still be on my feet.
Joni Mitchell
They'll crucify you for staying the same, and they'll crucify you for change. I'd rather be crucified for changing.
Joni Mitchell
Abstract Expressionism was invented by New York drunks.
Joni Mitchell
We'll laugh and toast to nothing, and smash our empty glasses down.
Joni Mitchell
I know my generation - a lot of them, they're getting old now, and they want to think back fondly, they want to kid themselves. A lot of them think, 'Yeah, we were the best.' That's the kiss of death. That's non-growth. And also that's very bad for the world.
Joni Mitchell
What I do is unusual: chordal movements that have never been used before, changing keys and modalities mid-song.
Joni Mitchell
Land of snap decisions, land of short attention spans, nothing is savored long enough to really understand.
Joni Mitchell
The pirate he will sink you with a kiss, he'll steal your heart and sail away.
Joni Mitchell
