More quotes by Madonna Ciccone
I like pushing the envelope. But I don't like to do it just for the sake of doing it.
Madonna Ciccone
I was a buffoon and an idiot until the age of forty
Madonna Ciccone
I like to change. A new lamp, a piece of art, can transform a room.
Madonna Ciccone
I am not reinventing myself. I am going through the layers and revealing myself. I am on a journey, an adventure that's constantly changing shape.
Madonna Ciccone
Sometimes I was in a mood to write a song as if I was writing in my journal and reveal certain parts of me that I was ready to reveal.
Madonna Ciccone
You don't want to be the smartest person in the room you want to be the dumbest in the room. You want to be surrounded by other thinking people who are going to say something that makes you think, Oh, my God, that's an amazing idea. Why didn't I think of that.
Madonna Ciccone
I learned a lot about humility and patience, keeping my mouth shut.
Madonna Ciccone
Never forget who you are, little star.
Madonna Ciccone
Yoga is a metaphor for life. You have to take it really slowly. You can't rush. You can't skip to the next position. You find yourself in very humiliating situations, but you can't judge yourself. You just have to breathe, and let go. It is a workout for your mind, your body and your soul.
Madonna Ciccone
When I think about popular culture, I can't help but think that we're living in the age of loneliness. There's this illusion that we all have instant access to each other, but we actually have no real connection.
Madonna Ciccone
There's always elements of danger in New York but people are always out on the street. I don't feel scared there at all.
Madonna Ciccone
It's not easy having a good marriage--but I don't want easy. Easy doesn't make you grow. Easy doesn't make you think. I thank God everyday that I am married to a man who makes me think. That's my definition of true love.
Madonna Ciccone
People want to hear the dirt. But this is not really anything I want to talk about.
Madonna Ciccone
[George Michael] is a great songwriter and he makes very classy videos, like me.
Madonna Ciccone
I think they probably got it on, Jesus and Mary Magdalene.
Madonna Ciccone
I want to be like Gandhi, and Martin Luther King, and John Lennon... but I want to stay alive.
Madonna Ciccone
Economic markets are collapsing. People all over the world are suffering and people afraid. What happens when peep are afraid? They become intolerant.
Madonna Ciccone
Losing my virginity was a career move.
Madonna Ciccone
We live in a very scary time. Or should I say we don't live at all.
Madonna Ciccone
I was working with Toby Gad, who spent a lot of time in India. There's a sitar [in Body Shop] and the song has a very Indian flavor to it. I liked the idea of the body of a car as a kind of sexual metaphor - What you do to a car, what you do in a car - drive. So, lots of innuendos, and lots of fun.
