A lot of people saw Marilyn Monroe and Judy Garland as persecuted and tragic and vulnerable, and I think a lot of gay men feel that way because of their particular predicament in society and not being accepted completely.

More quotes by Madonna Ciccone
Love´s nothing else than a war in which both are the winners.
Madonna Ciccone
I've always been interested in electronica, techno, trip-hop, that kind of music. The thing that bothered me about a lot of that music, though, was it seemed devoid of emotion. There wasn't a lot that felt personal.
Madonna Ciccone
If you have to ask for something more than once or twice, it wasn't yours in the first place. And that's hard to accept when you love someone.
Madonna Ciccone
I have to get way more vocal and become a little bit less mysterious.
Madonna Ciccone
The only way we know we love ourselves and the people in our life is by the agreements we are willing to make and keep
Madonna Ciccone
I hate polite conversation. I hate it when people stand around and go, Hi, how are you? I hate words that don't have any reason or meaning. Also I hate it when people smoke in elevators and closed in places. It's just so rude.
Madonna Ciccone
I became an overachiever to get approval from the world.
Madonna Ciccone
It's always exciting for me to perform.
Madonna Ciccone
This will be a revolution of inquiring further, of not worrying about winning other people's approval, of not wishing you were someone else but perfectly content to be who you are. Someone unique, and rare, and fearless. I want to start a revolution of love.
Madonna Ciccone
A lot of places I go are dangerous, like Tel Aviv or Rio, but that never stops me from going there and putting on a show. I have good security. I don't worry about that.
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
It's not easy having a good marriage--but I don't want easy. Easy doesn't make you grow. Easy doesn't make you think. I thank God everyday that I am married to a man who makes me think. That's my definition of true love.
Madonna Ciccone
I am not reinventing myself. I am going through the layers and revealing myself. I am on a journey, an adventure that's constantly changing shape.
Madonna Ciccone
Why did I want to break all the rules? Because the rules didn’t make sense, that’s why
Madonna Ciccone
Poor is the man whose pleasures depend on the permission of another.
Madonna Ciccone
I like talking I like playing with the audience.
Madonna Ciccone
When I'm dead and no longer the threat. My comfort is that all the great artists since the beginning of time have always been completely misunderstood and never fully appreciated until they were dead.
Madonna Ciccone
My father was very strong. I don't agree with a lot of the ways he brought me up. I don't agree with a lot of his values, but he did have a lot of integrity, and if he told us not to do something, he didn't do it either.
Madonna Ciccone
Sometimes I look back at myself and remember things I used to say, or my hairstyle, and I cringe.
Madonna Ciccone
I believe women should own their sexuality and sexual expression.
