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.

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.

All the criticism is ultimately a blessing in disguise. Because now people know about Malawi [due to the child adoption]. And now people know about the orphans there. And hopefully it's gonna turn around. And a positive is gonna come out of the negative.
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
I think that its an artist's responsibility to have a point of view. Society takes its cue from popular art. People need something to look to, something to provoke them into questioning whether they completely hate something or completely love something.
Madonna Ciccone
I fear the future I wish for my children is at risk, so I'm taking action. Please join me.
Madonna Ciccone
I think passive beauties have their place in the world. It's hard for me to relate to that.
Madonna Ciccone
Some people are medicating themselves all the time so that they don't have to embrace themselves. If you can't feel, you can't embrace.
Madonna Ciccone
I try to have thick skin, but every once in a while I read something that someone says about me, and it's so slanderous and moralistic and it has nothing to do with my music.
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
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
Everyone who knows me thinks I'm a bit of a work Nazi.
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 think art should be controversial. I think it should make people think.
Madonna Ciccone
I know I can feel bad, when I get in a bad mood, and the world can look so sad, only you make me feel good.
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
I get strength from my art - all the paintings I own are powerful.
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’m a role model for those who dare to be different. For those who dare to take a stand in their life and have an opinion

[George Michael] is a great songwriter and he makes very classy videos, like me.
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.
