More quotes by 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 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 feel like I'm creeping closer to finding the situation that triggers songwriting, which is obviously an extreme of an emotion.
Laura Marling
I am quite competitive. In stupid things like card games.
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'd prefer to be good, but I'm not always. I struggle.
Laura Marling
My reaction to everything in life is when it gets a bit complicated to water it down and make it simple again.
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
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.
Laura Marling
I find it dull when my heart meets my mind
Laura Marling
Living in L.A., I was completely lost - and I enjoyed it.
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
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
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 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
But if i sit here and weep I'll be blown over by the slightest of breeze
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
Take me somewhere I can grow Give me something let me go Tell me something I don't know
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
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.
