More quotes by Madonna Ciccone
Every time I reach a new peak, I see a new one I want to climb.
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 feel just as hungry today as I did the day I left home.
Madonna Ciccone
I felt very awkward and out of place in school. Not popular, not attractive, not special in any way and I was longing for love and approval from someone.
Madonna Ciccone
You're getting angry, you know I can see. You're just jealous, cause you can't be me.
Madonna Ciccone
Jean-Baptiste Mondino: She's John Lennon and Yoko Ono at the same time.
Madonna Ciccone
I was never appalled by myself. I felt a little bit uneasy about certain things. But honestly I've learned to love myself and to see that in the midst of all my ambition and desire to succeed and my search for approval, I do give things to people. I bring some sort of happiness to their lives. So I'm not so hard on myself anymore.
Madonna Ciccone
Today I decided to sing in my underwear! No one seemed to mind! #loveyoufromtheinsideout. #artforfreedom
Madonna Ciccone
Why did God create men? Because vibrators can't mow the lawn.
Madonna Ciccone
I think art should be controversial. I think it should make people think.
Madonna Ciccone
I made a vow that I would never need another person ever. Turned my heart into a cage, a victim of a kind of rage.
Madonna Ciccone
I like to change. A new lamp, a piece of art, can transform a room.
Madonna Ciccone
If at first you don't succeed, you're obviously not me.
Madonna Ciccone
I'm disciplined. And I'm persevering. And I don't give up very easily... and I'm reliable.
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
And then, going to high school, I saw how popular girls had to behave to get the boys. I knew I couldn't fit into that. So I decided to do the opposite. I refused to wear makeup, to have a hairstyle. I refused to shave. I had hairy armpits.
Madonna Ciccone
If your joy is derived from what society thinks of you, you're always going to be disappointed.
Madonna Ciccone
I grew up in a high school where it was very conservative, and I felt like people disapproved of me, and I felt like an outsider.
Madonna Ciccone
Poor is the man whose pleasures depend on the permission of another.
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.
