More quotes by Joni Mitchell

Image
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
Image
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
Image
The rock & roll industry is very incestuous, and we have all been close at one time or another. A lot of beautiful music and a lot of beautiful times came from that. A lot of pain, too, because, inevitably, different relationships broke up.
Joni Mitchell
Image
You snipe so steady, you snub so snide, so rip and ready to diminish and deride.
Joni Mitchell
Image
So many things I would have done, but clouds got in my way.

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
Image
I'm a very analytical person, a somewhat introspective person that's the nature of the work I do.
Joni Mitchell
Image
I create by feeling rather than by intellectualizing.
Joni Mitchell
Image
They'll crucify you for staying the same, and they'll crucify you for change. I'd rather be crucified for changing.
Joni Mitchell
Image
Just before our love got lost you said I am as constant as a northern star And I said, constantly in the darkness, Where's that at? If you want me I'll be in the bar.
Joni Mitchell
Image
We managed to put together a compilation that had some creativity to it. In the meantime I was listening to the free radio stations and I noticed that during their war coverage they were playing these songs born out of the Vietnam War that were all critical of the soldiers.

Image
My style of songwriting is influenced by cinema. I'm a frustrated filmmaker. A fan once said to me, 'Girl, you make me see pictures in my head!' and I took that as a great compliment. That's exactly my intention.
Joni Mitchell
Image
I think I would go further into fine arts, I think, if I were to continue.
Joni Mitchell
Image
You win the lasting laurels with your laughter.
Joni Mitchell
Image
A few drinks later you're not so choosy when the closing lights strip off the shadows on this strange new flesh you've found.
Joni Mitchell
Image
At the point where I'm trying to force something and it's not happening, and I'm getting frustrated with, say, writing a poem, I can go and pick up the brushes and start painting. At the point where the painting seems to not be going anywhere, I go and pick up the guitar.

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.

Fear is like the wilderland - Stepping stones or sinking sand

We're captive on the carousel of time, we can't return we can only look behind.

I hang my laundry on the line when I write.
