More quotes by Lisa Marie Presley
I would describe my aesthetic as definitely personal and harmonious with an eclectic yet bohemian sensibility.
Lisa Marie Presley
I dropped out of school in the 11th grade because there was no purpose in it for me. I'm not proud of this, and I'm not trying to promote it.

A couple of months ago I hauled my white ass on stage alongside Chaka Khan and Stevie Wonder for Divas Las Vegas, singing in front of a celebrity audience. If I can hold my own there, I can hold my own at Top of the Pops, trust me.

Lisa Marie Presley
If I'm alone too long I think too much, and I'm not interested in doing that. That won't lead anywhere good, I'm sure. If I'm busy I tend to stay out of trouble. An idle mind is the devil's playground.
Lisa Marie Presley
I don't deal well with admiration if it's for something I haven't done. Other than exist.
Lisa Marie Presley

Lisa Marie Presley
Anybody in the spotlight can get lost in that if they are not careful.
Lisa Marie Presley
I've been chased through airports with a screaming baby because the photographers are ruthless, and they want the picture.
Lisa Marie Presley
On my US tour maybe three out of 30 shows there was an Elvis impersonator in the crowd but that's it. I usually get younger fans, and those that come that are of an older generation end up walking out because it's too loud
Lisa Marie Presley
I take a situation, analyse it, break it down, put it in the form I want it to be in, and then I toss it away. Let somebody else go deal with it.
Lisa Marie Presley
I'm not eager to jump into marriage again. I'm in the corner right now, wearing my dunce cap. That area is obviously a nightmare.
Lisa Marie Presley
I have a tendency to kick it up. I like to rattle the cage.
Lisa Marie Presley
I don't think that I'm a top 40 artist in any way. So I don't think I'm that mainstream.
Lisa Marie Presley
I've been through a lot of stuff.
Lisa Marie Presley
I was very protective of my father and I didn't like these people who hung around outside all day. They creeped me out.
