I Love Meetings With Suits. I Live For Meetings With Suits. I Love Them Because I Know They Had A Really Boring Week And I Walk In There With My Orange Velvet Leggings And Drop Popcorn In My Cleavage And Then Fish It Out And Eat It. I Like That. I Know I'm Entertaining Them And I Know That They Know.

I Was Used To Dancing, But Only When Someone Told You What To Do. So In The Nightclub I Was All Over The Place, I Combined Everything. Street Dance, Modern Dance, A Bit Of Jazz And Ballet, I Was Twyla Tharp, I Was Alvin Ailey, I Was Michael Jackson. I Didn't Care, I Was Free.

If We Can Elect An African American As President, We Can Support Gay Marriage! Defeat Prop 8! We Will Not Give Up!

I Like To Be Provocative.

We Live In A World Where People Like To Pit Women Against Each Other. And This Is Why I Love The Idea Of Embracing Other Females Who Are Doing What I'm Doing. It's Important For Us To Support Each Other.

To Me, The Most Important Thing - Aside From Meeting People's Physical Needs, Whether That's Education, Health Care, Clothing, Food, A Roof Over Their Heads - Is Changing The Mind-set And Educating People. And Most Of All, Most Important, Is Empowering People And Making Them Self-sustaining.

I Keep Telling Everyone That I Want To Start A Revolution But No One Is Taking Me Seriously. If I Had Black Skin And An Afro, Would You Take Me Seriously? If I Was An Arab Waving A Hand Grenade, Would You Take Me Seriously?

On The One Hand, The Idea Of Marriage And The Sort Of Traditional Family Life Repulses Me. But On The Other Hand, I Long For It, You Know What I Mean? I'm Constantly In Conflict With Things. And It Is Because Of My Past And My Upbringing And The Journey That I've Been On.

The Critics Have Been Writing Me Off For 20 Years. That's Nothing New. As Far As I Know I Still Have Plenty Of Fans And Sell Lots Of Records. Do I Care What Critics Say About Me? No, And I Don't Read Reviews.

I Wanted To Know Why People Follow Rules Blindly, Or Why Girls Had To Act A Certain Way And Boys Didn't. Why Could Boys Ask Girls Out And Girls Not Ask Guys Out? Why Did Girls Have To Shave Their Legs And Guys Didn't? Why Did Society, Like, Set Everything Up The Way They Did? My Whole Adolescence Was Full Of Unanswered Whys. Because They Never Got Answered, I Just Kept Lighting Fires Everywhere - Metaphorically Speaking.

I Think After Time Goes By And You Earn Certain Rights Or You Break Through Certain Barriers, You Could Sometimes, Maybe, Take It For Granted What You Have Now That You Didn't Have Before.

For Me, It's Either You're Part Of Creation Or You're Part Of Destruction. It's Inexplicable; It's Like Breathing, And I Can't Imagine Not Doing It.

Effeminate Men Intrigue Me More Than Anything In The World. I See Them As My Alter Egos. I Feel Very Drawn To Them. I Think Like A Guy, But I'm Feminine. So I Relate To Feminine Men.

I've Been Inspired By Films Since I Started Dancing, And I'm Married To A Filmmaker, And I Think It Was One Of My Secret Desires, But I Was Afraid To Just Say, 'i Want To Be A Director'.

It Would Be So Helpful For The Straight Community To See Men In Powerful Positions Coming Out And Saying "i'm Gay" So They Don't Have These Preconceived Notions That All Gay Men Are Smarmy Idiots Living On The Street Or Whatever It Is People Think Of Gay Men.

Life And Love Inspire Me. I Think Reinventing Yourself Is Vital To Your Survival As An Artist And A Human Being. I Know It’s Cliché To Say About Me At This Point, But It’s True. My Curiosity Definitely Is The Driving Force In My Life And Career. When You Stop Learning, Engaging And Growing, You’re Dead.

In Some Respects I Will Never Die. Because Art Is Immortal. What We Leave Behind And What We Create - The Energy That We Put Out Into The World Is Eternal.

I Don't Care Anymore If People Dress Like Me, Now I Want Them To Think Like Me.

I Came To The Realization That A Strong Female Is Frightening To Everybody, Because All Societies Are Male-dominated, Black Societies, Poor People, Rich People, Any Racial Group, They're All Dominated By Men. A Strong Female Is Going To Threaten Everybody Across The Board...

I Refuse To Act The Way Someone Expects Me To.

Acknowledge World Aids Day! Do What You Can To Help Save Lives! #livingforlove

Like A Virgin, Touched For The Very First Time.

I Feel Like I've Survived So Much, And Been Through So Much. And Sometimes I Miss The Innocence Of Those Times. Life Was Different. New York Was Different. The Music Business Was Different. I Miss The Simplicity Of It, The Naivete Of Everyone Around Me.

It's Not Enough To Raise Awareness. You Have To Give People Solutions, And You Have To Invite Them To Get Involved In Whatever Way They Can, Whether That's Doing Volunteer Work Or Taking A Portion Of Their Salary And Figuring Out Where They Want That Money To Go.

I Guess I Like To Have Fun.

I Don't Know What Our Government Does Except Put Us Into Debt And Blow Up Other Countries.

I've Always Wanted To Be Taller. I Feel Like A Shrimp, But That's The Way It Goes. I'm Five-foot Four-and-a-half-inches - That's Actually Average. Everything About Me Is Average. Everything's Normal, In The Books. It's The Things Inside Me That Make Me Not Average.

Many People See Eva Peron As Either A Saint Or The Incarnation Of Satan. That Means I Definitely Can Identify With Her.

I See A Huge Paradox In Me - The Intense Need To Be Loved And The Search For Approval Juxtaposed With The Need To Nurture Other People, To Be The Mother I Never Had.

I'll Stop Doing Everything That I Do When I Don't Want To Do It Anymore.

I Think Love Resides In All Of The Songs, Even When They Are Overtly Sexual.

When I First Came To New York I Was A Dancer, And A French Record Label Offered Me A Recording Contract And I Had To Go To Paris To Do It. So I Went There And That's How I Really Got Into The Music Business. But I Didn't Like What I Was Doing When I Got There, So I Left, And I Never Did A Record There.

I Know Where Beauty Lives, I've Seen It Once, I Know The Warmth She Gives.

I Wanted To Be A Nun. I Saw Nuns As Superstars. When I Was Growing Up I Went To A Catholic School, And The Nuns, To Me, Were These Superhuman, Beautiful, Fantastic People.

I Like To Change. A New Lamp, A Piece Of Art, Can Transform A Room.

Everyone Is Entitled To My Opinion

I Have My Work And My Faith... If That's Boring To Some People, I Can't Tell You How Much I Don't Care.

Younger People Are Generally More Adventurous - They're More Open, More Fun - Have You Met Many Guys My Age? Guys My Age Are Married Or Divorced Or Grumpy, Fat And Balding.

There Are Certain Mystical Belief Systems That Believe That Taking Pictures Takes An Aspect Of The Soul, But Beyond That It's Just The Idea That Once You're Captured In A Photograph, Then A Million Presumptions Are Made Of You, And You Are Forever Frozen In That One Moment, And You Are Perceived To Be The Embodiment Of That Moment, And That, Of Course, Is An Illusion.

We Live In A Very Scary Time. Or Should I Say We Don't Live At All.

Children Always Think They Did Something Wrong When Their Parents Disappear.

Oh Sure, I Have Lots Of Fears. My Job Is To Conquer My Fears. The Irony Of Being A Performer Is That I Have Huge Insecurities. Each Of Us Is Responsible For What Happens In Our Lives. When Good Things Happen, We Take Ownership, But When Bad Things Happen We Often Don't Take Responsibility. There Are No Mistakes Or Accidents. Consciousness Is Everything And All Things Begin With A Thought. We Are Responsible For Our Own Fate. We Reap What We Sow, We Get What We Give And We Pull In What We Put Out.

George [michael], I Want Your Sex, So Be My Father Figure And I Will Have Faith If We Have To Live Hand-to-mouth. The Diva Himself.

I Like Coming Up With These Spectacular Extravaganzas That Will, Hopefully, Totally Blow People Away. But I Also Like The Intimacy Of Stopping It All And Sitting At The Edge Of The Stage And Connecting With Individual People In The Audience.

The Self-confidence One Builds From Achieving Difficult Things And Accomplishing Goals Is The Most Beautiful Thing Of All.

I've Studied Kabbalah, As You Know, For Many Years, So There Are A Lot Of Things I Do That One Would Associate With Practising Judaism. I Hear The Torah Every Saturday. I Observe Shabbat. I Say Certain Prayers. My Son Was Bar Mitzvahed. So This Appears Like I'm Jewish, But These Rituals Are Connected To What I Describe As The Tree Of Life Consciousness And Have More To Do With The Idea Of Being An Israelite, Not Jewish.

It's Not Easy Having A Good Marriage--but I Don't Want Easy. Easy Doesn't Make You Grow. Easy Doesn't Make You Think. I Thank God Everyday That I Am Married To A Man Who Makes Me Think. That's My Definition Of True Love.

Beauty Is Where You Find It.

I Dare You To Read A Book This Weekend! War And Peace? To Kill A Mocking Bird? Catcher In The Rye? The Heart Is A Lonely Hunter? For Whom The Bell Tolls? As I Lay Dying? Giovanni's Room? The Bell Jar? These Books Changed My Life. #artforfreedom #rebelheart

Cosmic Systems Intertwine, Astral Bodies Drip Like Wine, All Of Nature Ebbs And Flows. Comets Shoot Across The Sky, Can't Explain The Reasons Why, This Is How Creation Goes.

We As Americans Are Completely Obsessed And Wrapped Up In A Lot Of The Wrong Values - Looking Good, Having Cash In The Bank, Being Perceived As Rich, Famous And Successful Or Just Being Famous... It's The Most Superficial Part Of The American Dream And Who Would Know Better Than Me? The Only Thing That's Going To Bring You Happiness Is Love And How You Treat Your Fellow Man And Having Compassion For One Another.

My Daughter Is A Fan Of Mine But She Doesn't Want To Be Too Obvious About It Because I'm Her Mum And It's Not Cool.

To Me, The Whole Process Of Being A Brush Stroke In Someone Else's Painting Is A Little Difficult

I Am Not Reinventing Myself. I Am Going Through The Layers And Revealing Myself. I Am On A Journey, An Adventure That's Constantly Changing Shape.

I Don't Like To Be Provocative For The Sake Of Being Provocative.

You Don't Want To Be The Smartest Person In The Room; You Want To Be The Dumbest In The Room. You Want To Be Surrounded By Other Thinking People Who Are Going To Say Something That Makes You Think, "oh, My God, That's An Amazing Idea. Why Didn't I Think Of That."

When You Make A Movie, It Seems Like There's Nothing But Resistance. It's Kind Of A Miracle That Any Movie Ever Gets Made.

I Believe In Equal Rights For All People.

Freedom Comes When You Learn To Let Go, Creation Comes When You Learn To Say 'no'

Just Like A Prayer, Your Voice Can Take Me There.

If You Have An Opinion And People Disagree With You, You Might Not Get A Job. You Might Be Blacklisted. You Might Have Fewer Followers On Instagram.

For Me, A Male Image That I'm Really Moved By Is Somewhere Between Of Oscar Wilde Type Of A Male: The Fop, The Long Hair, The Suits, Too Witty For His Own Good, Incredibly Smart, Scathingly Funny - All That. But Then My Other Ideal Is More Like The Buddhist Monk - The Shaved Head, Actually Someone Who Sublimates Their Sexuality.

Catholicism Is Not A Soothing Religion. It's A Painful Religion. We're All Gluttons For Punishment.

I'm Sentimental About Jesus On The Cross. Jesus Was A Jew, And Also I Believe He Was A Catalyst, And I Think He Offended People Because His Message Was To Love Your Neighbour As Yourself; In Other Words, No One Is Better Than Somebody Else. He Embraced All People, Whether It Was A Beggar On The Street Or A Prostitute, And He Admonished A Group Of Jews Who Were Not Observing The Precepts Of The Torah. So He Rattled A Lot Of People's Cages.

The Thing I Love Most About Being Famous Is People Listening To Me When I Have Something Important To Say.

I Know The Aspect Of My Personality, Being The Vixen, The Heartbreaker And The Incredibly Provocative Girl Is A Very Marketable Image, But It's Not Insincere. You Just Can't Take It Seriously.
