Laurie Anderson
History is an angel being blown backwards into the future
Laurie Anderson
The main thing that attracts me to Buddhism is probably what attracts every artist to being an artist - that it's a godlike thing. You are the ultimate authority. There is no other ultimate authority.
Laurie Anderson

Laurie Anderson
The right to carry a gun has nothing to do with the rights of other people.
Laurie Anderson
