If I can't be daring in my work or the way I live my life, then I don't really see the point of being on this planet.

More quotes by Madonna Ciccone
Younger people are generally more adventurous - they're more open, more fun - have you met many guys my age? Guys my age are married or divorced or grumpy, fat and balding.
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
People love pitting strong females against each other.
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
There is a very modest side to me too. How far away from me is the image? It's about 20 steps away.
Madonna Ciccone
I think all of us make the mistake of thinking we're going to change people when we get together. But we're not. People are who they are. And people change in their own time.
Madonna Ciccone
Everybody in our family studied a musical instrument. My father was really big on that. Somehow I only took a year or two of piano lessons and I convinced my father to let me take dancing lessons.
Madonna Ciccone
For me, it's either you're part of creation or you're part of destruction. It's inexplicable it's like breathing, and I can't imagine not doing it.
Madonna Ciccone
I keep telling everyone that I want to start a revolution but no one is taking me seriously. If I had black skin and an afro, would you take me seriously? If I was an Arab waving a hand grenade, would you take me seriously?
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
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
Bad girl, drunk by six, kissing someone else's lips. Smoked to many cigarettes today, I'm not happy when I act this way.
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.
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
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
I wanna kiss you in Paris I wanna hold your hand in Rome
Madonna Ciccone
One is that we are all responsible for our actions, our behavior, and our words, and we must take responsibility for everything we say and do. I am the architect of my destiny. You can`t blame other people for things that happened to you.
Madonna Ciccone
I'll stop doing everything that I do when I don't want to do it anymore.
Madonna Ciccone
Truth is never far behind.
Madonna Ciccone
I wouldn't say I wanna conquer the world anymore. But I want to be a part of making the world a better place. I want to inspire people and I wanna be part of the solution.
Madonna Ciccone
