This is how it works You're young until you're not You love until you don't You try until you can't You laugh until you cry You cry until you laugh And everyone must breathe Until their dying breath.

No one's laughing at God -We're all laughing with God.
Regina Spektor
Its not like I have all the answers.
Regina Spektor
I was a kid, and I was very excited to experience this whole new world. And everything was fun, everything from, oh, wow, we get bananas - I'd only seen them in picture books, you know - to, like, the diversity of the neighborhood and to explore Judaism for the first time. It was really hushed in the Soviet Union.

A man destined to hang can never drown
Regina Spektor
Never, never mind your bleeding heart.

And people are just people, They shouldn't make you nervous. The world is everlasting, It's coming and it's going.

I'm like, 'Would you be the person in the room that would boo when Dylan went electric? I know I wouldn't. Or are you the person that left The Beatles after 'She Loves You,' or 'Drive My Car?' You weren't on board for 'Revolution 9' or 'Day In The Life,' were you?'

Maybe I am skipping over the city and going from very personal things to the world, from internal experience to giant, far-away-from-space experience.

I don't kiss losers and I don't kiss winners, and I don't fight for honor 'cause we all are born sinners

I think that so many people don't understand how easy it is to be broke, how easy it is to find yourself in a situation where you're in an absolutely foreign place.
Regina Spektor
As you get older as an animal on the planet, you want to get a little more comfortable, you want to get cozier.
Regina Spektor
Pick a star on the dark horizon and follow the light.
Regina Spektor
So break me to small parts, let go in small doses, but spare some for spare parts.

I started to write before I went to SUNY Purchase music conservatory. As an audition I submitted what I now think are really awful songs, but I guess they saw something in them.
Regina Spektor
I just like being all over the place and writing whatever comes to mind. Having the tools? It's such a gift.
Regina Spektor
You ask a person what their personal favorite song on the album is, and it's literally the one with the least amount of listens if you looked at the statistics of it.
Regina Spektor
This is how it works You peer inside yourself You take the things you like And try to love the things you took And then you take that love you made And stick it into some Someone else's heart Pumping someone else's blood.
Regina Spektor
You make something, and you really have fun with it, and you try to put emotion in it, and at the end of the day, you have no idea how the tide is going to fall. You don't know if everyone's going to like it, if everyone's going to hate it, if it's going to be like you're a media darling, or all of a sudden you're a sellout. You have no idea.

The piano is not firewood -- yet.
