“That’s what rock and roll is for, turn that switch on, and man, it can all be.”

You have to sing loud and move wild with all that in back of you. Now, I don’t know how to perform any other way.

I just want to feel as much as I can, it’s what soul is all about.

Why should I hold back now and sound mediocre, just so I can sound mediocre twenty years from now?

In my insides, it really hurts if someone doesn’t like me. It’s silly.

I’d rather have ten years of superhypermost than live to be seventy sitting in some goddamn chair watching TV.

This whole thing that’s happened to me, you see, this whole success thing..it hasn’t yet really compromised the position that I took a long time ago in Texas

I had a lot of hurts and confusions. You know, it’s hard when you’re a kid to be different. You’re all full of things, and you don’t know that it’s about.

Gimme a pigfoot and a bottle of beer.

Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz.

I love being a star more than life itself.

Oh, Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz – My friends all drive Porsches, I must make amends.

.I’m gettin’ it now, today. I don’t even know where I’m gonna be twenty years from now, so I’m just gonna keep on rockin’, cause if I start saving up bits and pieces of me.

All my life I just wanted to be a beatnik. Meet all the heavies, get stoned, get laid, have a good time. That’s all I ever wanted.

It’s that point two people can get to they call love, when you really touch someone for the first time, but it’s gigantic, multiplied by the whole audience. I feel chills.

They threw these musicians at me, man, and the sound was coming from behind. The bass was charging me.

Guess what, I might be the first hippie pinup girl.

This is all you need in life: a computer, a camera, and a cat.

We are all listening with different perspectives. I don’t want to impose my subjectivity to the listener.

It is a fact that all women contribute more to marriage than men for the most part they have to change their place of living, their method of work, a great many women today changing their occupation entirely on marriage and they must even change their name.

If all men were just there would be no need of valor.

We meet all life’s greatest tests alone.

When Planet Rock came out, then you had all of the electro funk records.

And all means of discovering them are equally admissible.

You need people with brain and heart and soul that give it all. You need young people on skateboards and you need people running around making noise.
