People don't know what Kabbalah is, and so they jump to conclusions. For me, studying Kabbalah is studying - is just - is asking questions. And I encourage all of my children to be that way, and I think people don't understand that. And so they make assumptions and they judge.
Madonna Ciccone
I like that you have four minutes to zero in on something and evoke a specific feeling and take people on some sort of journey.
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
Life and love inspire me. I think reinventing yourself is vital to your survival as an artist and a human being. I know it’s cliché to say about me at this point, but it’s true.

Madonna Ciccone
Everyone probably thinks that I'm a raving nymphomaniac, that I have an insatiable sexual appetite, when the truth is I'd rather read a book.
Madonna Ciccone
I wouldn't have turned out the way I was if I didn't have all those old-fashioned values to rebel against.
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
It is difficult to believe in a religion that places such a high premium on chastity and virginity.
Madonna Ciccone
Sexism - you can't be sexy and intelligent. It's not allowed.
Madonna Ciccone
Just like a prayer, your voice can take me there.
Madonna Ciccone
A good relationship is a competition of generosity.
Madonna Ciccone
Before doing any interviews I like to know who I'm meeting with and get a bit of an idea of their sensibilities.
