More quotes by Joni Mitchell
In terms of fiction, I'd rather go out and have a good time than read a book about someone having a good or bad time.
Joni Mitchell
You could write a song about some kind of emotional problem you are having, but it would not be a good song, in my eyes, until it went through a period of sensitivity to a moment of clarity. Without that moment of clarity to contribute to the song, it's just complaining.
Joni Mitchell
Oh it gets so lonely When you're walking And the streets are full of strangers
Joni Mitchell
We call for the three great stimulants of the exhausted ones, artifice, brutality, and innocence.
Joni Mitchell
A little lawyer on the tube, he said, its so easy now, anyone can sue.
Joni Mitchell
I'm a method actress in my songs, which is why it's hard to sing them.
Joni Mitchell
I was young for my age. Not as naïve as they expected. I don't know why I seem to bring that out in people.
Joni Mitchell
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot.
Joni Mitchell
If you're smart or rich or lucky Maybe you'll beat the laws of man But the inner laws of spirit And the outer laws of nature No man can
Joni Mitchell
I get the same charge from juxtaposition of colors as I do from juxtaposition of chords.
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
Buddy Holly and the early rock 'n' roll was no lighter than the way I play. It's very minimal.
Joni Mitchell
Applause, applause, life is our cause.
Joni Mitchell
I liked playing in small clubs. I really liked holding the attention of thirty or forty people. I never liked the roar of the big crowd.
Joni Mitchell
Fibers in a variety of colors protrude out of my skin like mushrooms after a rainstorm. They cannot be forensically identified as animal, vegetable or mineral.
Joni Mitchell
So many things I would have done, but clouds got in my way.
Joni Mitchell
Rolling Stone hates me. They must have an editorial policy to do me in for many years.
Joni Mitchell
Fear is like the wilderland - Stepping stones or sinking sand
Joni Mitchell
You have this mounting aggressive ignorance with the rabbit's foot of their particular religion. You don't really have any kind of spiritual law, just a kind of a rabid mental illness. The songs are a little slice of life.
Joni Mitchell
I hang my laundry on the line when I write.
