Joni Mitchell
They paved paradise and put up a parking lot.
Joni Mitchell
I lost my daughter at 21. I had to give her up because I was broke, no place to take her, no money to take her. That was very traumatic.
Joni Mitchell
Fly silly sea bird, no dreams can possess you, no voices can blame you for sun on your wings.
Joni Mitchell
Oh it gets so lonely When you're walking And the streets are full of strangers
Joni Mitchell

Joni Mitchell

Joni Mitchell
You snipe so steady, you snub so snide, so rip and ready to diminish and deride.
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.
Joni Mitchell
Rachmaninoff made a musician out of me. His 'Rhapsody on a Theme by Paganini' was the piece that sent me into raptures. It spoke to me. To me, it was a tender entreaty for the misunderstood.
Joni Mitchell

Joni Mitchell
Lord, there's danger in this land, you get witch hunts and wars when church and state hold hands.
Joni Mitchell
My name had gone stale, and no matter how progressive I got, it was my time to die.
Joni Mitchell
Nobody understood The Reoccurring Dream, but after September 11, when we were coerced to do a national duty and go out and shop, surely people could begin to see what I was getting at.
Joni Mitchell
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
I certainly don't want to be an angry old artist.
Joni Mitchell
You wake up one day and suddenly realize that your youth is behind you, even though you're still young at heart.
Joni Mitchell
All I really, really want our love to do is to bring out the best in me and in you too.
Joni Mitchell
So many things I would have done, but clouds got in my way.
Joni Mitchell
Applause, applause, life is our cause.
Joni Mitchell
