Laurie Anderson
I know a lot of people who have weird specialties that are not taught in schools they're things that you learn in life.
Laurie Anderson
I think illusion is one of the most interesting things that I've found to think about. Just look at yesterday, and what you were doing, and how important it was, and how nonexistent it is now! How dreamlike it is! Same thing with tomorrow. So where are we living?
Laurie Anderson
Being an artist is a totally godlike thing to do - and I have a god complex.
Laurie Anderson
Not many people care what you do. They care about what you do as much as you care about what they do. Think about it. Just exactly that much. You are not the center of the universe.
Laurie Anderson
I've been trying to avoid goal-oriented behavior.
Laurie Anderson
I think women are excellent social critics.
