More quotes by Lucinda Williams
I write the songs, go in and record them, then I listen to everything and decide how it all fits together.
Lucinda Williams
I am trying to get right with God. I'm sort of making a statement about the excessiveness.
Lucinda Williams
I'm in a contented, loving relationship, but that doesn't mean I'm not struggling with other things that are going on around me in the world.
Lucinda Williams
You can't really praise somebody's work and then criticize the process.
Lucinda Williams
I started writing songs, I guess, when I was about 13 or 14, but I didn't know if they were good enough yet or anything.
Lucinda Williams
I write first for myself as a therapeutic process, to get stuff out and to deal with it.
Lucinda Williams
I grew up in a very literate, very independent household where people spoke their ideas and were very supportive of helping each other find their own way
Lucinda Williams
I feel a lot more comfortable being me these days. I'm constantly told that my work is good. A lot of fans and a lot of other artists say my songs and albums mean a lot to them. Isn't that what's important?
Lucinda Williams
The more I separate myself from my upbringing, the more I appreciate what it's done for me.
Lucinda Williams
You can't be afraid to deal with your demons. You've got to go there to be able to write.
Lucinda Williams
I'm trying to learn how to tap into the power of my own being. I know it sounds corny.
Lucinda Williams
I usually have an idea of how I want a song to sound, but I don't always know how to get there
Lucinda Williams
It's always been hard for me to do without sounding precious or too corny or whatever.
Lucinda Williams
You should put time into learning your craft. It seems like people want success so quickly, way before they're ready.
Lucinda Williams
I'd rather play a few nights at the Fillmore than play one night at an arena.
Lucinda Williams
I think in the world of rock music or whatever it's called - anything outside of Nashville - there's a lot more freedom within that industry to do whatever you want to do.
Lucinda Williams
The old jazz singers or old blues singers, you always just saw them kind of sitting down and singing. They weren't worried as much about their voice sounding perfect. They would make the song kind of fit their voice.
Lucinda Williams
I've had trouble being in relationships and writing. This has been a real problem for me. I don't know if it's because I'm not free to fantasize or create these fantasy things about other people
Lucinda Williams
Sometimes I feel like I just open myself up like I'm a vehicle for something coming through me. It's like a meditative state I have to be in.
Lucinda Williams
It's just the more you do it the better you get, or at least that's how I feel in my case. I think it's a combination of confidence and just having done it this long and just learning. I'm always learning. I'm still honing my craft.
