More quotes by Suzanne Vega
It takes as much discipline to be a mother and a wife as it does to do anything else.
Suzanne Vega

Suzanne Vega
That said, I've never thought the fact that I'm a woman was important to my work.
Suzanne Vega

Suzanne Vega
If you have to fight a crowd of boys, it's best to go for the biggest one. That way you won't have to fight them all. The others will see that you mean business and you will win their respect.
Suzanne Vega
I had some fears as a kid, but I was also relatively fearless. Maybe that's a result of living half the time in reality and the other half in fantasy.
Suzanne Vega
I didn't go out looking for fights as a kid, but if it was necessary, I'd fight. Fighting was a daily thing where we lived.
Suzanne Vega
I was always inventing characters and making up stories.
Suzanne Vega
Don't make a threat and then not do it.
Suzanne Vega
Writing in other voices is almost Japanese in the sense that theres a certain formality there which allows me to sidestep the embarrassment of directly expressing to complete strangers the most intimate details of my life.
Suzanne Vega
Of course, sometimes when you write personally, you are also writing about society, obliquely reflecting topical issues, but not in a way that people would expect you to or in the way that someone trying to make a point would.
Suzanne Vega
