More quotes by Madonna Ciccone
As much as I think I've inspired people in the world, I'd like to be more involved bringing about world peace.
Madonna Ciccone
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.
Madonna Ciccone
I do think of myself as a queen, but I don't think I'm the only queen. There's room for other queens. We reign over different kingdoms.
Madonna Ciccone
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 loved nuns when I was growing up. I thought they were beautiful. For several years I wanted to be a nun. I saw them as really pure, disciplined, above average people. They had these serene faces. Nuns are sexy.
Madonna Ciccone
Ever since my daughter was born I feel the fleetingness of time. And I don't want to waste it on getting the perfect lip color.
Madonna Ciccone
Some people are medicating themselves all the time so that they don't have to embrace themselves. If you can't feel, you can't embrace.
Madonna Ciccone
People hear the soul, black influence in my voice. I grew up listening to CKLW and all the black stations like WLBS.
Madonna Ciccone
Do I have to change my name, will it get me far? Should I lose some weight, am I gonna be a star?
Madonna Ciccone
I feel that most gay men are so much more in touch with a certain kind of sensitivity that heterosexual men aren't allowed to be in touch with, their feminine side. To me they're whole human beings, more so than most of the straight men that I know.
Madonna Ciccone
I wanna kiss you in Paris I wanna hold your hand in Rome
Madonna Ciccone
Filmmaking is such a collaboration. At a certain point, I suppose you do have to let go and trust the people you're working with.
Madonna Ciccone
Fame gets you in the door but it doesn't keep you in the room.
Madonna Ciccone
I like to make people think.
Madonna Ciccone
Let’s forget about time And dance our lives away
Madonna Ciccone
And then, going to high school, I saw how popular girls had to behave to get the boys. I knew I couldn't fit into that. So I decided to do the opposite. I refused to wear makeup, to have a hairstyle. I refused to shave. I had hairy armpits.
Madonna Ciccone
I think after time goes by and you earn certain rights or you break through certain barriers, you could sometimes, maybe, take it for granted what you have now that you didn't have before. And then that would lead to a certain lack of community, in a way, caring in a way, that I saw before [in gay society].
Madonna Ciccone
It amazes me when I talk to people in their early 20s and they've never read the classics, things we read as children. When you don't have knowledge and understanding, then fear rises in you.
Madonna Ciccone
Hurt that's not supposed to show, and tears that fall when no one knows.
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.
