I think the biggest reason I was able to express myself and not be intimidated was by not having a mother. For example, mothers teach you manners. And I absolutely did not learn any of those rules and regulations.

More quotes by Madonna Ciccone
I loved Prince then, I love him now and will love him eternally. He's with our son now.
Madonna Ciccone
Do everything you're told. Be a good cheerleader. And never, never say, 'It's not so bad.' Say 'You are almost there!' And say it a lot.
Madonna Ciccone
Sometimes I look back at myself and remember things I used to say, or my hairstyle, and I cringe.
Madonna Ciccone
I'm not a feminist, I'm a humanist.
Madonna Ciccone
I've created a very unconventional family. I have lovers who are three decades younger than me. This makes people very uncomfortable.

I can't stand when I walk into a room and everyone's not talking to each other and just on their phones.
Madonna Ciccone
I'll stop when I run out of ideas.
Madonna Ciccone
When I first came to New York I was a dancer, and a French record label offered me a recording contract and I had to go to Paris to do it. So I went there and that's how I really got into the music business. But I didn't like what I was doing when I got there, so I left, and I never did a record there.
Madonna Ciccone
We've made so many advances in other areas - civil rights, gay rights - but ageism is still an area that's taboo and not talked about and dealt with.
Madonna Ciccone
Fame is a by-product. It's not a goal. What matters is loving your work and loving what you do
Madonna Ciccone
I hate polite conversation. I hate it when people stand around and go, Hi, how are you? I hate words that don't have any reason or meaning. Also I hate it when people smoke in elevators and closed in places. It's just so rude.
Madonna Ciccone
I'm not claiming to appeal to the same people that Christina Aguilera or Britney Spears are going to appeal to. I'm not trying to. I'm doing what I want to do.
Madonna Ciccone
I'm a gay man trapped in a woman's body!
Madonna Ciccone
I am a survivor. I am like a cockroach, you just can't get rid of me.
Madonna Ciccone
Deep in my heart I'm concealing things that I'm longing to say. Scared to confess what I'm feeling - frightened you'll slip away.
Madonna Ciccone
I think in the end, when you're famous, people like to narrow you down to a few personality traits. I think I've just become this ambitious, say-whatever's-on-her-mind, intimidating person. And that's part of my personality, but it's certainly not anywhere near the whole thing.
Madonna Ciccone
The only way we know we love ourselves and the people in our life is by the agreements we are willing to make and keep
Madonna Ciccone
I was never appalled by myself. I felt a little bit uneasy about certain things. But honestly I've learned to love myself and to see that in the midst of all my ambition and desire to succeed and my search for approval, I do give things to people. I bring some sort of happiness to their lives. So I'm not so hard on myself anymore.
Madonna Ciccone
I like film soundtracks. I like the soundtracks better than the movies.
Madonna Ciccone
I stand for freedom of expression, doing what you believe in, and going after your dreams.
Madonna Ciccone
