More quotes by Regina Spektor
I think it's ridiculous that we even have to talk about gay rights as rights...It's gonna be as shocking as the treatment of slaves someday.
Regina Spektor
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.
Regina Spektor
The other day I was down by the Hudson River, and I see two nuns in full habit rollerblading down the street holding hands. And I'm like, 'Oh, my God, I get it. The world is surreal and beautiful. And everything is fine.'
Regina Spektor
Yeah. My singing and my songs were very influenced by all of that. People would come up to me and ask, Is that a Billie Holiday song? I'd say, No, it's my song. The lyrics would be in my style, but the songs would be very jazzy.
Regina Spektor
I just like being all over the place and writing whatever comes to mind. Having the tools? It's such a gift.

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.
Regina Spektor
You decide if you're ready for something. It can come in the guise of, Oh, I don't think I like this.
Regina Spektor
I would really hate it if I could call up Kafka or Hemingway or Salinger and any question I could throw at them they would have an answer. That's the magic when you read or hear something wonderful - there's no one that has all the answers.
Regina Spektor
God, our world is so complicated.
Regina Spektor
I used to be such a militant city-ist, but more and more I've seen forests and nature and oceans, and I don't know any more if this is the awesomest way to live.
Regina Spektor
Love is the answer to a question that I have forgotten
Regina Spektor
It's always interesting to me to see people projecting things, like people would say, This record is much more mature than your other record and I would think, Well, this record has more songs from when I was 18 on it than the other one.
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.
Regina Spektor
No one's laughing at God -We're all laughing with God.
Regina Spektor
Never, never mind your bleeding heart.
