Quote

But if i sit here and weep I'll be blown over by the slightest of breeze

I think I'll feel out of place wherever I go on earth, forever. But that's fine. I have to make my peace with that.
Laura Marling
Image
I definitely tell things at arm's length but that is conscious. No part of me wants everybody to know what's going on.

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.

Image
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.

I'm reluctantly interested in love and helplessly interested in logic and yet they're so conflicting. And they're both necessary for a happy balance, a happy existence... I think.

All my songs come from me because I only seem able to write about myself and my experiences.

Living in L.A., I was completely lost - and I enjoyed it.

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.

My reaction to everything in life is when it gets a bit complicated to water it down and make it simple again.

I'd prefer to be good, but I'm not always. I struggle.

Image
I get up, go and get a coffee, and go do the crossword - I'm loyal to one particular paper, the 'Guardian' - and that's my idea of a perfect morning.

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
