More quotes by Patti Smith
Sure I destroyed my guitar at every concert, but it was okay, because I'd always get a shiny new one the very next day.
Patti Smith
I don't think the Palestinian people or Afghan children or some other things I'm concerned about are at the top of other people's agendas - not right now, when America is going through such a recession and people are suffering across the board financially. But I think all that will change.
Patti Smith

Patti Smith
If you over-plan, you close the door on possibilities.
Patti Smith
My mother answers all my fan mail.
Patti Smith
If someone didn't want to be filmed, or my children said, Don't film me anymore, [Steven Sebring] didn't try to sneak a shot or cajole them he just respected their wishes.
Patti Smith
I was real religious when I was young. I wanted to be a missionary.
Patti Smith
[Steven Sebring] presence was also nice for my children, who, having just lost their father, quite naturally craved warm male attention. They gravitated to him right away.
Patti Smith
I always wrote like rock 'n' roll. And I always listen to rock 'n' roll as poetry.
Patti Smith
Christianity made us think there's one heaven.
Patti Smith
I know from an early age that I'm very comfortable in front of people. When I was a young girl, I'd love giving book reports.
Patti Smith
I hate to be enclosed. I don't like bathroom doors - I don't shut them. In fact, in my house, I have no doors.
