More quotes by Madonna Ciccone
It doesn't matter who you are, it's what you do that takes you far.
Madonna Ciccone
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
Who is my role model and how long can I keep this going? I just move around and do different things and come back to music, try making films and come back to music, write children's books and come back to music.
Madonna Ciccone
We all fall to the floor at some point. It's how you pick yourself up that's the real challenge. Isn't it?
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 hope my child will be a good Catholic like me.
Madonna Ciccone
I love horses. I think I may have been one of Henry VIII’s knights in another life, riding through a great forest.
Madonna Ciccone
I am attracted to a thug. I like that quality, but I like the other side of it, too. Because all guys who go around behaving in macho ways are really scared little girls. So you have to look beneath the surface. There's a difference between my ideal man and a man that I'm sexually attracted to, believe me. Therein lies the rub.
Madonna Ciccone
The worst thing about being famous? I think it's what everybody says.. the lack of privacy and the idea that you're not really allowed to make mistakes and everything that you do is viewed under a microscope.
Madonna Ciccone
I cheat on my books a lot, which is not a good thing because it's good to stick with one book and get to the end of it, but I'm a book philanderer.
Madonna Ciccone
You only see what your eyes want to see. How can life be what you want it to be?
Madonna Ciccone
Only the one that hurts you can make you feel better. Only the one that inflicts pain can take it away
Madonna Ciccone
It's not my nature to just kick back.
Madonna Ciccone
You have to be patient. I'm not!
Madonna Ciccone
I think you can be defiant and rebellious and still be strong and positive.
Madonna Ciccone
To me, the most important thing - aside from meeting people's physical needs, whether that's education, health care, clothing, food, a roof over their heads - is changing the mind-set and educating people. And most of all, most important, is empowering people and making them self-sustaining.
Madonna Ciccone
I don't think anyone strives to be anything negative. I just think that it's our nature to only focus on a few things in life and forget about a lot of other stuff.
Madonna Ciccone
My priority is my family, absolutely, 100 percent.
Madonna Ciccone
Power without guilt, love without doubt.
Madonna Ciccone
New York wasn't everything I thought it would be. It did not welcome me with open arms. The first year, I was held up at gunpoint. Raped on the roof of a building I was dragged up to with a knife in my back, and had my apartment broken into three times. I don't know why I had nothing of value after they took my radio the first time.
