More quotes by 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.

We've made so many advances in other areas - civil rights, gay rights - but ageism is still an area that's taboo and not talked about and dealt with.
Madonna Ciccone
When we take a picture, we have a negative. We put the right solution on it and, suddenly, the picture comes to life. So what do we do? We take the negative and turn it into a positive.
Madonna Ciccone
If we can elect an African American as president, we can support gay marriage! Defeat prop 8! We will not give up!
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
To be brave is to love someone unconditionally, without expecting anything in return. To just give. That takes courage, because we don't want to fall on our faces or leave ourselves open to hurt.
Madonna Ciccone

Madonna Ciccone
Part of the reason I sort of shot out like a cannon out of Michigan and left home at such an early age is because I had to feel independent.
Madonna Ciccone
My work gives me a sense of purpose that I never really had before - it gives me a lot of joy, and it would be wonderful to invite other people to get involved.
Madonna Ciccone
Art keeps me alive. I've obviously been devastated or heartbroken all my life, since my mother's death.
Madonna Ciccone
You bring me to my knees, while I'm scratching out the eyes of a world I want to conquer, and deliver, and despise. And right while I am kneeling there, I suddenly begin to care. And understand that there could be a person that loves me.
Madonna Ciccone
All you need is your own imagination. So use it that's what it's for.
Madonna Ciccone
Everything looks true written down. What you read in National Enquirer and News Of The World looks true written down.
Madonna Ciccone
I've created a very unconventional family. I have lovers who are three decades younger than me. This makes people very uncomfortable.
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
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 don't doubt love for a second. I'm living for love. Listen to my songs!
Madonna Ciccone
I always thought I should be treated like a star.
Madonna Ciccone
When you're 25, it's a little bit easier to be daring, especially if you are a pop star, because eccentric behavior is expected from you.
Madonna Ciccone
I was thinking about dying the other day the death thought came while I was sitting on the toilet peeing - that's where I have my most contemplative thoughts.
