Charity is the cement that unites communities to God and individuals to each other so that he who contributes to the union of hearts in a community binds it indissolubly to God.

More quotes by St. Vincent
Leaden trumpets spit the soot of power they sayI'm on your side when nobody is, cause nobody is.Come sit right here and sleep while I slip poison in your ear
St. Vincent
I've been so entwined with technology since I was about 15, recording myself and multitracking and producing things on my own.
St. Vincent
I think human beings have a really broad spectrum of traits, and I almost feel implicated when we say, 'Men are like this, women are like this.' Nobody was telling me, 'Don't get dirty, don't play in the mud, girls don't do that.'
St. Vincent
Let us love God my brothers, let us love God. But let it be with the strength of our arms and the sweat of our brow.
St. Vincent
I think in some ways, it can do a listener a disservice to explain a song. I think I'd rather leave a little room for people to put themselves in it.
St. Vincent
No matter what others say or do, even if the wicked succeed, do not be troubled: commit everything to God and put your trust in him.
St. Vincent
Go to the poor there you will find God.
St. Vincent
The Lilith Fair thing was Bummer Town - hey, hop aboard the marginalizing train. I guess you had people come out of that and have careers, but I think there was a pretty intense backlash, too.
St. Vincent
Whirlyball is only the most awesome sport on the planet! It's like bumper cars plus lacrosse meets basketball.
St. Vincent
Well, I've been recording myself on a computer since I was about 13 or 14. So it's completely entwined with my creative process. Essentially, it allows you to make music that's better and smarter than you are, by using your ears to lead the way.
St. Vincent
Fervor is a fire that makes things boil and grow hot, just as fire causes water to boil. It is, properly speaking, charity on fire, and that is what you should have because a Daughter without Charity is like a body without a soul.
St. Vincent
In regards to being a fashion aficionado, there's a certain amount of taking yourself seriously in the professional world. The self-effacing person can't completely go down the serious road. But I design, and love when things are beautiful.
St. Vincent
I'm unqualified to do anything other than music.
St. Vincent
Musically, I have more things in common with tons of bands that have no female members.
St. Vincent
We ought to deal kindly with all, and to manifest those qualities which spring naturally from a heart tender and full of Christian charity such as affability, love and humility. These virtues serve wonderfully to gain the hearts of men, and to encourage them to embrace things that are more repugnant to nature.
St. Vincent
A song has a life of its own. It's an autonomous thing, separate from your own experience, almost. And the mere repetition of it means it's subject to change it means approaching it differently, expressing different emotional aspects of it. It doesn't feel like wallowing.
St. Vincent
I only listen to my own music when I'm playing an hour-and-half set each night. I don't put it on recreationally.
St. Vincent
I think a lot of people who want to be musicians terrify their parents because they don't have a living example of it in their families, and I did. So I always knew that it was possible.
St. Vincent
I wish I had a gentle mind and a spine made up of iron.
St. Vincent
While Jesus is saving, I'm spending all my daysin backgrounds and landscapes with the languages of saints.While people are spinning like toys on Christmas day,I'm inside a still life with the other absentee.
St. Vincent
