More quotes by Madonna Ciccone
Popularity comes and goes. You need to know who you are, what you stand for, and why you're here.
Madonna Ciccone
I came to the realization that a strong female is frightening to everybody, because all societies are male-dominated, black societies, poor people, rich people, any racial group, they're all dominated by men. A strong female is going to threaten everybody across the board...
Madonna Ciccone
I wanted to be famous, I wanted everybody to love me. I wanted to be a star. I worked really hard, and my dream came true.
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
Having money is just the best thing in the world.
Madonna Ciccone

Madonna Ciccone
I think lines are meant to be crossed anyways. The entire time I was singing on the cross, there's numbers flipping over my head. You know, starting at one and going up to 12 million.
Madonna Ciccone
There is a very modest side to me too. How far away from me is the image? It's about 20 steps away.
Madonna Ciccone
I don't think evil is sexy! I don't think being cruel and mean and hurting other people is sexy! ... Although I have been quite attracted to some very bad boys!
Madonna Ciccone
There's no borderline for the things that I can say, do, and create.
Madonna Ciccone
My goal from the very beginning was just to write good songs that don't require any production to be felt or understood. I wanted to be able to sit in a room with a guitar and play the song from beginning to end and have it be as impactful as if you heard the studio version with all the bells and whistles.
Madonna Ciccone
You don't have to have a language in common with someone for a sexual rapport. But it helps if the language you don't understand is Italian.
Madonna Ciccone
You'll always be two steps behind me.
Madonna Ciccone
After years and years of everybody commenting on the way I look and dress and being photographed, one starts to become self-conscious and starts to plan things more. You end up judging yourself more, what looks good and what doesn't.
Madonna Ciccone
