More quotes by Norah Jones
I feel like I've been lucky, because I don't feel like I've ever tried to be somebody I'm not. People might disagree.
Norah Jones

Norah Jones

Norah Jones

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
It's hard for me to pry with people I know.
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
I just want to make my music, and I want it to stand on its own.
Norah Jones
I remember early on, for instance, having to play wedding gigs, that I hated playing the music. Now I don't have to play music that I don't like. I only get to do what I enjoy, so that's pretty lucky.
Norah Jones
I like my life. I like my friends. I don't want to go anywhere else.
Norah Jones
For me making music is part social, part interaction, part collaboration.
