Laurie Anderson
My secret dream is to write an epic poem. That's probably the most pretentious thing I've said.
Laurie Anderson

Laurie Anderson
Literature is the safe and traditional vehicle through which we learn about the world and pass on values from on generation to the next. Books save lives.
Laurie Anderson
Writers want to summarize: What does this mean? What did we learn from this? That's a very 19th-century way of thinking about art, because it assumes that it should make our lives better or teach us something.
Laurie Anderson
I really trust audiences as having excellent taste, for the most part.
Laurie Anderson
I think artists who are attracted to working on the Net will adjust their work to the capabilities of a very small screen.
Laurie Anderson
Shining in the midnight moonlight, while the King sings love me tender.
Laurie Anderson
People who were born alone are defined by feelings like Who's gonna be with me when I die? Who will ever understand me? Will I always feel so alone? Maybe if I write a book... and you forget that that doesn't help you so much.
Laurie Anderson
I'm actually not someone who believes in heaven or anything like that.
Laurie Anderson
I always feel like if someone has stage fright, I really try and say, Listen, these people want you to succeed, they want to have a good evening. They want to see something really great. They don't want to see something crappy. They don't. They want to be at something really special.
Laurie Anderson
