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
On the road, as a 'rock star,' there's superficial attention and adulation is thrown at you for a couple of hours - then you're alone in your room and it's lonely.
Melissa Etheridge
The subject and the reality of having children came at the height of my career.
Melissa Etheridge
It was tough being a single mom. It was tough being in a divorce with children. Very, very hard.
Melissa Etheridge
You are digging for the answers until your fingers bleed, to satisfy the hunger, to satiate the need.... And as you pray in your darkness for wings to set you free, you are bound to your silent legacy.
Melissa Etheridge
All men, and women, and everything in between are created equal.
