More quotes by Madonna Ciccone
I was more of a dancing kid than a singing kid. I mean, I sang in school choirs and I sang in school musicals, but I was much more interested in dancing than singing.
Madonna Ciccone
I know the aspect of my personality, being the vixen, the heartbreaker and the incredibly provocative girl is a very marketable image, but it's not insincere. You just can't take it seriously.
Madonna Ciccone
I love meetings with suits. I live for meetings with suits. I love them because I know they had a really boring week and I walk in there with my orange velvet leggings and drop popcorn in my cleavage and then fish it out and eat it. I like that. I know I'm entertaining them and I know that they know.
Madonna Ciccone
I don't even remember why I called myself an idiot. I can be very harshly critical of myself. It depends on my mood, and obviously it depends on where I am in my life. Yes, embracing myself - I'm working on that.
Madonna Ciccone
Some people out there think everything I do is a publicity stunt, they think when I go to the bathroom it's a publicity stunt.
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
Rejection is the greatest aphrodisiac.
Madonna Ciccone
I grew up in a high school where it was very conservative, and I felt like people disapproved of me, and I felt like an outsider.
Madonna Ciccone
Manipulating people, that's what I'm good at
Madonna Ciccone
I don't want no lies, I don't watch TV. I don't waste my time, won't read a magazine.
Madonna Ciccone
Sometimes I was in a mood to write a song as if I was writing in my journal and reveal certain parts of me that I was ready to reveal.
Madonna Ciccone
Yoga is a metaphor for life. You have to take it really slowly. You can't rush. You can't skip to the next position. You find yourself in very humiliating situations, but you can't judge yourself. You just have to breathe, and let go. It is a workout for your mind, your body and your soul.
Madonna Ciccone
It's always exciting for me to perform.
Madonna Ciccone
I'm constantly exploring spirituality, sexuality, different aspects of love, whether it's romantic love or the love you have for your children. And love can be as devastating and destructive as it can be rejuvenating and life-giving. I guess I try to capture all of that.
Madonna Ciccone
Truth is never far behind.
Madonna Ciccone
I could never work in a recording studio where you have this lovely view and a beach and the waves are crashing. For me, it's all about being in a tiny room with little windows. It's almost like you have to be in a prison. And you can create beauty when you're in that sort of deprived environment, which is a re-creation of your formative years.
Madonna Ciccone
Sleeping is the most difficult part of what I do, relaxing afterwards. Letting things go.
Madonna Ciccone
And I feel faster than the speeding light.
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
My mother died when I was five, and all I did was sit and cry. I cried and cried and cried all day, until the neighbors went away.
