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.

More quotes by Laura Marling
I am quite competitive. In stupid things like card games.
Laura Marling
Age is relative. Experience is relative. And I think often intensity is confused with maturity.
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
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.
Laura Marling
I'm the first to admit that I'm still pretty young.
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
All my songs come from me because I only seem able to write about myself and my experiences.
Laura Marling
There's a house across the river, but alas, I cannot swim I'll live my life regretting that I never jumped in
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
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.
Laura Marling
I thought ‘I wonder what will happen if I try and root myself somewhere?‘ Look back over the past eight years.
Laura Marling
I need some isolation, it's necessary to me, that's just who I am. I need to be left alone.
Laura Marling
People don't appreciate music any more. They don't adore it. They don't buy vinyl and just love it. They love their laptops like their best friend, but they don't love a record for its sound quality and its artwork.
Laura Marling
I'm incredibly neurotic and a control freak. I like the thought that if there's going to be anyone to blame it's going to be me.
Laura Marling
In my experience, the psychological aspect of femininity tends to be more receptive and apathetic and delicate. I think that because the feminine is a bit quieter, we live in a masculine-dominated society. It is the front-forward force that runs the world. And that's not the fault of men by any means, that's just the way the world works.
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
I find it dull when my heart meets my mind
Laura Marling
It’s hard to accept yourself as someone you don’t desire / As someone you don’t want to be.
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
