When inspiration does not come, I go for a walk, go to the movie, talk to a friend, let go... The muse is bound to return again, especially if I turn my back!

More quotes by Judy Collins
The opening line from a journal can be the beginning of a song.
Judy Collins
If I had not been already been meditating, I would certainly have had to start. I've treated my own depression for many years with exercise and meditation, and I've found that to be a tremendous help.
Judy Collins
I sang in the coffee houses . . . in the early 60's with no idea of success in terms of records or television. I just thought I was a storyteller. I had this deep, bassy voice. But I had incredible passion for the music I was singing.
Judy Collins
I have inspiration and feelings of being alive most every day I live
Judy Collins
Do what you love, and you will find the way to get it out to the world.
Judy Collins
Suffering is the price of being alive, and it is music and singing and art that has helped me live through some of the most difficult things that have happened to me.
Judy Collins
I don't think you get to good writing unless you expose yourself and your feelings.
Judy Collins
I am glad so many women singers are being heard in music today. It is healthy for music . . . healthy because it means a lot of men are listening!
Judy Collins
Capitalism can be helpful, but it can also be destructive when it's used by huge enterprises worldwide for the sale of weapons.
Judy Collins
Recovering from the suicide of a loved one, you need all the help you can get, so I very much recommend a meditation program. The whole picture of how to recover from this has to do with body, mind, and spirit. That's applicable to any kind of depression.
Judy Collins
Survival, I know, is to begin again.
Judy Collins
I have tried, in all the ways I can, to make timeless music.
Judy Collins
I think suicide is sort of like cancer was 50 years ago. People don't want to talk about it, they don't want to know about it. People are frightened of it, and they don't understand, when actually these issues are medically treatable.
Judy Collins
My book 'Trust Your Heart', which is the story of my life, will be followed by 'Singing Lessons', a memoir of love, loss, hope, and healing, which talks about the death of my son and the hope that has been the aftermath of the healing from that tragedy.
Judy Collins
When we sing, our hearts can lift and fly, over the troubled waters and over the years.
Judy Collins
Most of what we take as being important is not material, whether it's music or feelings or love. They're things we can't really see or touch. They're not material, but they're vitally important to us.
Judy Collins
Irish Alzheimer's: you forget everything except the grudges
Judy Collins
I am just glad that I can take the music to the people who want to hear it. I love my audiences. I am deeply indebted to them for giving me the chance to sing my concerts, make records, and do what I love. Whatever people call it, it is great to have a voice!
Judy Collins
I may like the Blizzard best, of all the songs I have written
Judy Collins
Music is always occurring. It is just a matter of marketing, attention, and many other factors, that determines whether people will hear these songs or not.
Judy Collins
