More quotes by Norah Jones
There was an enormous amount of pressure when my first album took off, and I struggled with the speed of everything and the exhaustion from the constant touring.
Norah Jones
There's a lot of personal stuff that can go into songwriting but there's also a lot of dramatization and fictionalization. You have to do that to make a good song.
Norah Jones
I'm not a very dark person.
Norah Jones

Breaking up is just hard, even if you're the one breaking up. It's not fun. It can be dramatic and complicated. And then you get a little distance and you think, why did it have to be so complicated and dramatic?
Norah Jones
What I was going for in the first two albums I didn't necessarily achieve. Because I was young and because it was my first time out. And the second album was such a 'quickie' sort of 'Let's just get it over with!' But the kind of music I make, there's a lot of subtlety in it. And I think it takes a couple of listens to actually really get it.
Norah Jones
I don't think I'm a great songwriter, but I think I've learned a lot about it, and I don't think there's any one way to do it. I don't think I can control it at all. I can just kind of hope that it happens.
Norah Jones
I want to check the record books and see how many fathers and daughters have won Grammys together.
Norah Jones
You would never catch me in a miniskirt.
Norah Jones
My mom and I have always been very close. She is my best friend. She had to make a lot of sacrifices early on in my life to make sure I got to do what I wanted to do.
Norah Jones
I'm in total control. I write the songs, decide what to sing and how to sing. I even control the recording process. But, with a film, there is no control at all.
Norah Jones
If I were a painter I would paint my reverie If that's the only way for you to be with me
Norah Jones
I'm a musician because I love it and it's supposed to be fun.
Norah Jones
I could do without 'cool' publications calling me 'mom jazz.' But I laughed all the way to the bank, baby.
