More quotes by Laura Marling
I've always loved books by the Bronte sisters. I love Jane Austen, too. I'm more influenced by people like her than by pop culture.
Laura Marling
I'm the first to admit that I'm still pretty young.
Laura Marling
One woman I interviewed, Amanda Ghost, said, Let's not bullshit, there are no women at the top of the music business, and that is a serious problem. And I said, Yes! And I didn't shy away from saying that. But I still don't want to be in the firing line. I'm not clever or witty or brave enough to get into the political nitty-gritty with it
Laura Marling
I feel increasingly like age is very irrelevant. Quite often, cynicism is confused with wisdom, and my scorn is confused with a knowing, which I don't have.

A friend is a friend forever And a good one will never leave, never
Laura Marling
I definitely tell things at arm's length but that is conscious. No part of me wants everybody to know what's going on.
Laura Marling
I can't give up that quick My life is a candle and a wick You can put it out, but you can't break it down In the end we are waiting to be lit
Laura Marling
There's huge amounts of nonsense that goes with everything surrounding music and art. All the things you have to do promote yourself - there's huge amounts of nonsense.

I need some isolation, it's necessary to me, that's just who I am. I need to be left alone.
Laura Marling
Women are presented with a very narrow aspect of the female narrative. And now we live in a culture and a time where it gets to us very quickly and very young. So how do you maintain in a child that sense of unique identity before they get thrown all that is projected on them?
Laura Marling
It took a lot of time and practice for me to realise that there's no point trying to be something you're not.
Laura Marling
If I don't have an outlet in which to express myself...throug h songwriting or other mediums...I get a bit jittery.
Laura Marling
I'm a lot more observational than personal in my writing. My writing is mostly a lot of questions without answers.
Laura Marling
Take me somewhere I can grow Give me something let me go Tell me something I don't know
Laura Marling
But if i sit here and weep I'll be blown over by the slightest of breeze
Laura Marling
Living in L.A., I was completely lost - and I enjoyed it.
Laura Marling
I feel like I'm creeping closer to finding the situation that triggers songwriting, which is obviously an extreme of an emotion.
Laura Marling
The female psyche is inherently self-sufficient, because female sexuality is inherently self-sufficient. I think women are maybe more comfortable, or women are able to find physical beauty in each other that doesn't terrify them.
Laura Marling
I was an incredibly misanthrope. I couldn't relate to people my age, and I'm not sure why, as I wasn't particularly smart or interesting
Laura Marling
I am quite competitive. In stupid things like card games.
