More quotes by Regina Spektor
I think that you have to let yourself be agitated and annoyed and not be fully comfortable.
Regina Spektor
I'm much more drawn to fiction, to short stories, and to plays, than I am to diarists.
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
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.

The world that has made us can no longer contain us
Regina Spektor
God, our world is so complicated.

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 think that I'm always going to think that it's silly to value certain things that no matter how many people find it really valuable, it's always just going to seem a little silly to me.
Regina Spektor
There's something about trying to know when you really need to protect yourself, or else you're not going to get anything done, and sometimes to be really uncomfortable or agitated or annoyed or bored. Boredom is so important.
Regina Spektor
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.
Regina Spektor
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
A man destined to hang can never drown
Regina Spektor
Never, never mind your bleeding heart.
Regina Spektor
I have this obsession with the '80s because I missed all of it.
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
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
So break me to small parts, let go in small doses, but spare some for spare parts.
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.

Every morning I wake up with a purpose and a smirk
