- 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. permalink
Madonna - I liked my body growing up and I wasn't ashamed of it. I liked boys and didn't feel inhibited by them. Maybe it comes from having brothers and sharing a bathroom. The boys got the wrong impression of me at high school. They mistook forwardness for promiscuity. When they don't get what they want, they turn on you. I went through this period when all the girls thought I was loose and the boys said I was a nymphomaniac. The first boy I ever slept with was my boyfriend and we'd been going out a long time. permalink
Madonna - Time magazine (27 May 1985) - I live for meeting with men in 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. permalink
Madonna - I love horses. I think I may have been one of Henry VIII's knights in another life, riding through a great forest. permalink
Madonna - I loved nuns when I was growing up. I thought they were beautiful. For several years I wanted to be a nun. I saw them as really pure, disciplined, above average people. They had these serene faces. Nuns are sexy. permalink
Madonna - I miss New York. I still love how people talk to you on the street, just assault you and tell you what they think of your jacket permalink
Madonna - I must have been Japanese in a previous life. I'm pretty sure I was a warrioress. I can't explain it, I just know. I'm good at fighting - fighting with a big sword. permalink
Madonna - I pay attention to what's going on around me. I'm always looking for new energy, new talent, new voices. When you do that I think it's easier to come up with fresh ideas. It's not that my career has been based on surprising people, but it's been about challenging myself — to constantly do new things that are going to broaden my own mind and in the process, hopefully, connect with other people. permalink
Madonna - Parade magazine (24 June 2008) - I sometimes think I was born to live up to my name. How could I be anything else but what I am having been named Madonna? I would either have ended up a nun or this. permalink
Madonna - I stand for freedom of expression, doing what you believe in, and going after your dreams. permalink
Madonna - I think passive beauties have their place in the world. It's hard for me to relate to that. permalink
Madonna - I think that everyone should get married at least once, so you can see what a silly, outdated institution it is. permalink
Madonna - I think that life is a paradox and you have to embrace that in your work and your belief systems.... You can't be a literalist, and that's the trouble that people always find themselves in. That's why people always hit a wall with any of my stuff, because you can't take it literally. permalink
Madonna - Dazed & Confused magazine (29 February 2008) - I think you can be defiant and rebellious and still be strong and positive. permalink
Madonna - I try to have thick skin, but every once in a while I read something that someone says about me, and it's so slanderous and moralistic and it has nothing to do with my music. permalink
