Melissa Etheridge
Weight isn't a factor in nutritional health.
Melissa Etheridge
I kind of thought when I was 30 that you're as good as your going to get. And that's not true.

People ask me, 'Is being a parent the be-all, end-all?' And I say, 'Oh, it definitely is up to the person, and it is difficult, it can be very difficult, and it can be extremely healing.' That's what I have found, that the children are mirrors. Everyone is a mirror, but children especially because they're day and night and all day long.
Melissa Etheridge
I think being a parent is knowing how to love. Sometimes love is discipline, sometimes it's humor, sometimes it's listening.
Melissa Etheridge
I tell people that anything that could ever happen to you on stage has happened to me. My clothes have fallen off. I've fallen off the stage. I've gotten sick - anything.
Melissa Etheridge
There are many plant medicines that are available to us that have a lot of stigma around them that I hope, in the future, our medical community can look at, because I would absolutely go to those alternatives first before I went back to Western medicine.
Melissa Etheridge
The subject and the reality of having children came at the height of my career.
Melissa Etheridge
Chemotherapy tests your sanity.
Melissa Etheridge
Cancer's like the ultimate excuse. Who's gonna say, 'Oh, no, you have to show up for this one?' 'Hey, I got cancer. I can't be there.' It's the ultimate eraser.
Melissa Etheridge
What I do believe in is other worlds and spirits. There is some other power in control - levels of energy that perhaps we don't see.
Melissa Etheridge
It was tough being a single mom. It was tough being in a divorce with children. Very, very hard.
Melissa Etheridge
My wife works harder than anyone else with the children around the house. I make the money, sure, but she does everything else.
