In my coming-of-age time, there was no internet, no social networking, nothing. It was just show after show, hoping one day somebody would notice you.

More quotes by 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 wake up every morning and it's like when you break up with somebody who has really broken your heart.
Madonna Ciccone
I am a survivor. I am like a cockroach, you just can't get rid of me.
Madonna Ciccone
It is difficult to believe in a religion that places such a high premium on chastity and virginity.
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
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
In everyday life I am quiet and reserved, not the housekeeper type but cool and relaxed. I don't get up in the morning wearing false eyelashes and I don't wear fancy underwear when I'm cooking popcorn. I'm a nice little ducky.
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 have had many challenges in my life, including some very big ones when I was young and I've learned a lot of valuable lessons along the way. I have seen life from just about every angle you can see it from.
Madonna Ciccone
My priority is my family, absolutely, 100 percent.
Madonna Ciccone
I don't take drugs. I never did. All the feelings that drugs are supposed to produce in you - confidence or energy - I can produce naturally.
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
Art keeps me alive. I've obviously been devastated or heartbroken all my life, since my mother's death.
Madonna Ciccone
It's always exciting for me to perform.
Madonna Ciccone
If those civil rights groups are going into those orphanages and offering to look after those children, then they have every right to make a stink about it. But they're not. They're not offering a solution.
Madonna Ciccone
I think art should be controversial. I think it should make people think.
Madonna Ciccone
I love being photographed, or I should say I love the art of photography. It's about people taking photographs of you, stealing them, and then presuming or assuming or captioning. Words can never be taken back, photographs can never be taken back, nothing can ever be taken back.
Madonna Ciccone
I'm not going to compromise my artistic integrity.
Madonna Ciccone
A good relationship is a competition of generosity.
Madonna Ciccone
I worked for everything that I got and I worked long and hard before I got to this point so when I got it I thought I deserve it.
Madonna Ciccone
