I think they probably got it on, Jesus and Mary Magdalene.
Madonna Ciccone

I stand for freedom of expression, doing what you believe in, and going after your dreams.

In my coming-of-age time, there was no internet, no social networking, nothing. It was just show after show, hoping one day somebody would notice you.
Madonna Ciccone
Image
It is difficult to believe in a religion that places such a high premium on chastity and virginity.

I became an overachiever to get approval from the world.
Madonna Ciccone

I became very obsessed with death, and the idea that you never know when death will arrive, so one has to do as much as possible all the time to get the most out of life. That would be a motivating force.
Madonna Ciccone
Image
I think the silence would be good with me, and not interacting with people would be okay. But not being able to move outside of the space would be hard. Not being able to walk around - the stillness of my body, physically - that would be the challenge.

I feel like everybody needs to take a sabbatical and go to Russia and Africa and work in orphanages and really witness true suffering. And then you'll just feel ridiculous for ever complaining about anything. Everybody needs that kind of reality check.
Madonna Ciccone
Image
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.

Prince Charles is very relaxed at the table, throwing his salad around willy-nilly. I didn't find him stiff at all.
Madonna Ciccone
Image
I don't take drugs. I never did. All the feelings that drugs are supposed to produce in you - confidence or energy - I can produce naturally.
Madonna Ciccone
Image
When I'm dead and no longer the threat. My comfort is that all the great artists since the beginning of time have always been completely misunderstood and never fully appreciated until they were dead.
Madonna Ciccone
Image
Hanging a noose on my door reeks of cowardice and fear on many, many levels.
