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
Do you want - do you want - do you want to dance with me baby?
Joni Mitchell

Joni Mitchell

Joni Mitchell
I see bodies as individual things.
Joni Mitchell
If I'm censoring for anyone, it's for my parents. They are very old-fashioned and moral people. They still don't understand me that well.
Joni Mitchell
All the news of home you read, more about the war and of bloody changes.
Joni Mitchell
We'll laugh and toast to nothing, and smash our empty glasses down.
Joni Mitchell
White rhythm is waltzes, marches, and the polka. In Africa, rhythm is used for a celebratory groove, but white rhythm doesn't have such an enormous vocabulary of spirits. It's basically militant.
Joni Mitchell
I'm a very analytical person, a somewhat introspective person that's the nature of the work I do.
