More quotes by Madonna Ciccone
Start saving your pennies now. People spend $300 on crazy things all the time, things like handbags. So work all year, scrape the money together, and come to my show. I’m worth it.
Madonna Ciccone
Having money is just the best thing in the world.
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
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
It's not my nature to just kick back.
Madonna Ciccone
I'm encouraging other people, whether they're professionals or not, to use their creativity to express themselves, to get a conversation going, to get the party started, really.
Madonna Ciccone
If your joy is derived from what society thinks of you, you're always going to be disappointed.
Madonna Ciccone
I think in the end, when you're famous, people like to narrow you down to a few personality traits. I think I've just become this ambitious, say-whatever's-on-her-mind, intimidating person. And that's part of my personality, but it's certainly not anywhere near the whole thing.
Madonna Ciccone
But I love the idea - whether it's in my work or where I live - exploring new frontier, and I like putting myself in strange places and trying to survive and figure things out and gather up an infrastructure. I like knowing that I could figure out a way to live anywhere.
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
Donald Trump is the president. It's not a bad dream. It really happened. It's like being dumped by a lover and also being stuck in a nightmare.
Madonna Ciccone
I'll stop doing everything that I do when I don't want to do it anymore.
Madonna Ciccone
Hurt that's not supposed to show, and tears that fall when no one knows.
Madonna Ciccone
To me, the most important thing - aside from meeting people's physical needs, whether that's education, health care, clothing, food, a roof over their heads - is changing the mind-set and educating people. And most of all, most important, is empowering people and making them self-sustaining.
Madonna Ciccone
If you're not comfortable with a strong woman you're not comfortable with your own feminine instincts. You're not comfortable, period. You're going to be threatened by everything that's not exactly like you are ... and that is the measure any man.
Madonna Ciccone
In America it is not considered to be mentally ill when a woman advances on her prey in a discotheque setting with hardy cocktails present.
Madonna Ciccone
The media is something that affects a lot of people, so you're constantly trying to strike a balance between respecting something and not caring about it.
Madonna Ciccone
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.
Madonna Ciccone
I must confess that I am usually drawn to sadness, and loneliness has never been a stranger to me. But love tried to welcome me, but my soul drew back, guilty of lust and sin.
Madonna Ciccone
My favorite scene that I ever filmed was singing Don't Cry For Me Argentina from the balcony of the Casa Rosada in Argentina [where the real Eva Peron once stood] during Evita. That was amazing. SO real and surreal. Bizarre.
