Personal quotes
"...It's a radical time for musicians, a really
revolutionary time, and I believe revolutions are a
lot more fun than cash, which by the way we don't have
at major labels anyway, so we might as well get with
it and get in the game."

not a woman, I'm a force of nature."
"I'm
not going to hurt anybody other than that dick who keeps
writing songs about me."
"Cocaine
is like really evil coffee. (What she told her daughter

"I don't
mean to be a diva, but some days you wake up and you're
Barbara Streisand."
"I don't
need plastic in my body to validate me as a woman. "
