More quotes by Joni Mitchell
I'm a very analytical person, a somewhat introspective person that's the nature of the work I do.
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
I get the same charge from juxtaposition of colors as I do from juxtaposition of chords.
Joni Mitchell
I got in before SoHo was SoHo. It was just Little Italy when I was in there. It's still off the touristy track. It's just away from the Saturday action, the crowds and everything. It's too expensive. It's insane. You've got to be a billionaire to live on Manhattan now.
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
Unlike some of my peers, I haven't really hit a writer's block. When I hit a block I just paint, which is an old crop rotation trick.
Joni Mitchell
I was anti-intellectual to the nth. Basically I liked to dance and paint, and that was about it.
Joni Mitchell
Land of snap decisions, land of short attention spans, nothing is savored long enough to really understand.
Joni Mitchell
Americans have decided to be stupid and shallow since 1980.
Joni Mitchell
The pirate he will sink you with a kiss, he'll steal your heart and sail away.
Joni Mitchell
Some turn to Jesus and some turn to heroin.
Joni Mitchell
Daydreamin' drugs the pain of living.
Joni Mitchell
Give me spots on my apples, but leave me the birds and the bees, please.
Joni Mitchell
You know that it never has been easy Whether you do or do not resign Whether you travel the breadth of the extremities Or stick to some straighter line.
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
With a painting, you don't have to go back and paint it again.
Joni Mitchell
I have one piece of music, since 1997, and I don't see it having lyrics. Where does it go in this world? So I haven't recorded it.
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
Abstract Expressionism was invented by New York drunks.
Joni Mitchell
The only thing I have to give to make you smile, to win you with, are all the mornings still to live.
Joni Mitchell
