I can't even say I've begun yet, but I'm trying on the idea that there is a book in my future.

Chocolate's okay, but I prefer a really intense fruit taste. You know when a peach is absolutely perfect... it's sublime. I'd like to capture that and then use it in a dessert.

An eye for an eye til everyone is blind.

I don't live in as much fear as I used to. I'm not afraid of the music business. Life is too damn short. I know what's important, and the tasks are very clear.

You've got to dance like nobody's watching, and love like it's never going to hurt.

I want to savor the aging process. As you get older, you trade your innocence for wisdom and the wisdom is your reward.

A gourmet meal without a glass of wine just seems tragic to me somehow.

You have to write badly to write at all. If it's crappy, I will rewrite it later. But it will be mine. You can hear the resonance of an artist who goes into herself.

Dance like nobody's watching.

Tonight I feel like all of creation is asking us to dance.

I would step into a place of being lined up with a sense of purpose and my inner compass, and everything was going in the same direction. Then I'd get lazy and get off the track. And then things would start to fall apart, and I'd back up and get it together again.

So all of these things are going on that make you wake up and realize you are a mortal person. You can choose to cruise through your life, but if you do, you're going to open your eyes at some point, and it's gone.
