More quotes by Norah Jones
Making records is fun. It's not some big statement. You're allowed to make mistakes.

Norah Jones
The coolest thing I've gotten to do in the past few years is guest star on Sesame Street.

Norah Jones
I love film, and I would love to be a part of something that people universally love as a piece of film. Sure. Of course I would. And I would love to take acting lessons, and see that side of it someday. But I'm a musician.

Norah Jones
It's important to keep indie record stores alive because their unique environments introduce music lovers to things in a very personal way.
Norah Jones
It's funny how you realize what's important, and it's not fame and money, even though it can be really nice. It's happiness and whatever it takes to make you feel happy.
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
A song will keep going round in my brain and keep me awake.
Norah Jones
I should have a therapist. I have plenty to therapise about.
Norah Jones
I'm ballsy. Well, sometimes I'm ballsy.
Norah Jones
For a young artist to really make it and make money is a lot more difficult these days.
Norah Jones
I always try to do something different. I don't think I've made the same record over and over.
Norah Jones

Norah Jones
