With a painting, you don't have to go back and paint it again.
Joni Mitchell

I loved Debussy, Stravinsky, Chopin, Tchaikovsky, anything with romantic melodies, especially the nocturnes. Nietzsche was a hero, especially with Thus Spoke Zarathustra. He gets a bad rap hes very misunderstood. Hes a maker of individuals, and he was a teacher of teachers.

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.

Land of snap decisions, land of short attention spans, nothing is savored long enough to really understand.
Joni Mitchell
Image
I'm irresponsible to my career in order to paint. Because painting is obsessive. I forget to eat. I forget to sleep.
Joni Mitchell
Image
I like my freedom. I like to do my own grocery shopping. People do recognize you. They are kind of shocked. Some people like it. It makes them feel at ease. It confirms their hopes that you are in fact similar to them.
Joni Mitchell
Image
Whatever it was that I felt was the weak link in my previous project gave me inspiration for the next one.
Joni Mitchell
Image
Inside your own self pity there you swim, in sinking down to drown her voice still haunts you, and only with your laughter can you win.
Joni Mitchell
Image
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
Image
We are stardust, we are golden and we've got to get ourselves back to the garden.
Joni Mitchell
Image
I assume there must be some kind of genetic thrust. My two grandmothers were very different, but both of them were frustrated musicians.
Joni Mitchell
Image
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

I come from pioneer stock, developers of the West, people who went out into the wilderness and set up home with nothing but a pair of oxen.
