More quotes by Regina Spektor
I hate picking favourite books. I usually tend to stay away from all the 'top record' and 'favourite song' and 'favourite book', and I just think it doesn't do any good for anybody.
Regina Spektor
It doesn’t feel natural for me to write some diary type song. I want to write a classic like Yesterday but weird songs about meatballs in refrigerators come into my head – I can’t help it.
Regina Spektor
I have this obsession with the '80s because I missed all of it.
Regina Spektor
We're living in a den of thieves
Regina Spektor
A man destined to hang can never drown

All the monsters in your mind just want to be nice. They want to be kind. They want to play nice. They want to be softer than the storms around. You feel them through the windows and the doors.

I met this wonderful guy who owned an old pub near the Eiffel Tower called Malone's (he's French but it's an Irish name). He had a cellar with a piano and told me I could use it whenever I wanted to. I played lots of gigs down there. When I came back I played a show at the Knitting Factory.
Regina Spektor
This is the way I want to die. Torn apart by angry fans who want me to play a different song.
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
So break me to small parts, let go in small doses, but spare some for spare parts.
Regina Spektor
God, our world is so complicated.
Regina Spektor
I'm much more drawn to fiction, to short stories, and to plays, than I am to diarists.
Regina Spektor
It feels very good to sing in Russian. It feels so good inside my body.
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
Every morning I wake up with a purpose and a smirk
Regina Spektor
I am very close with my parents, they are very amazing, so loving, so cool, and really valued art.
Regina Spektor
I'd always wanted to work in the studio and experiment with sounds. Things that I'm really influenced by and that I love are like The Beatles and Radiohead, and all those records by bands whose music is really involved.
Regina Spektor
Most of the time I don't even talk about any direct lineage of songs, because I feel like it just chains them down into my own consciousness, and the whole fun of them is being able to live in others' consciousness.
Regina Spektor
Its not like I have all the answers.
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.
