Joni Mitchell
There'll be icicles and birthday clothes And sometimes there'll be sorrow
Joni Mitchell
I've looked at life from both sides now...from win and lose, and still somehow it's life's illusions I recall I really don't know life at all.
Joni Mitchell
All the news of home you read, more about the war and of bloody changes.

Joni Mitchell
Laughing and crying, you know it's the same release.
Joni Mitchell
Back then, I didn't have a big organization around me. I was just a kid with a guitar, traveling around. My responsibility basically was to the art, and I had extra time on my hands. There is no extra time now. There isn't enough time.
Joni Mitchell
During times like these, the wise are influential.
Joni Mitchell
Oh, the jealousy, the greed is the unraveling. It's the unraveling and it undoes all the joy that could be. .
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've got 50 different tunings in the guitar.
Joni Mitchell
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
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 assume there must be some kind of genetic thrust. My two grandmothers were very different, but both of them were frustrated musicians.
Joni Mitchell
So many things I would have done, but clouds got in my way.
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
The God of the Old Testament is the depiction of evil.
Joni Mitchell
