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!

Laura Marling
I like living in the city, but I like being able to get out of it as and when I like.
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
Age is relative. Experience is relative. And I think often intensity is confused with maturity.
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
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 need some isolation, it's necessary to me, that's just who I am. I need to be left alone.
Laura Marling
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.
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.
