More From Joni Mitchell

The devil ain't got no power over me. the devil come, and me shake hands with the devil. devil have his part to play. devil's a good friend, too... because when you don't know him, that's the time he can mosh you down.
Good Friend Hands Play
And when the sun rises we are afraid it might not remain when the sun sets we are afraid it might not rise in the morning when our stomachs are full we are afraid of indigestion when our stomachs are empty we are afraid we may never eat again when we are loved we are afraid love will vanish when we are alone we are afraid love will never return and when we speak we are afraid our words will not be heard nor welcomed but when we are silent we are still afraid so it is better to speak remembering we were never meant to survive

I just want to hear the true voices of women self-expressing - smart ones, stupid ones, ugly ones, beautiful ones, good ones, bad ones, fat ones, thin ones, all of it - until the profound silence that has resounded throughout history is filled with a healthy chorus coming from our side of the aisle.
Beautiful Smart Stupid
Are we so desperate for entertainment that we will fall for a trickless magician?? saw a woman in half. pull a rabbit out of a hat. do something! what tricks does this guy have? "i'm in a box...and i ain't gonna eat.". "i'm in a box... and i ain't gonna eat!!" that ain't no trick! that's called living in the projects!

What you ain't never understood is that i ain't got nothing, don't own nothing, ain't never really wanted nothing that wasn't for you. there ain't nothing as precious to me...there ain't nothing worth holding on to, money, dreams, nothing else--
Dream Holding On Wanted
Moderation? it's mediocrity, fear, and confusion in disguise. it's the devil's dilemma. it's neither doing nor not doing. it's the wobbling compromise that makes no one happy. moderation is for the bland, the apologetic, for the fence-sitters of the world afraid to take a stand. it's for those afraid to laugh or cry, for those afraid to live or die. moderation...is lukewarm tea, the devil's own brew.

Similar Quotes
What we take for virtue is often but an assemblage of various ambitions and activities that chance, or our own astuteness, have arranged in a certain manner; and it is not always out of courage or purity that men are brave, and women chaste.

The way to get a maximum rate of 'economic growth' assuming this to be our aim - is to give maximum encouragement to production, employment, saving, and investment. and the way to do this is to maintain a free market and a sound currency.
Encouragement Giving Growth
Faith is walking face-first and full-speed into the dark. if we truly knew all the answers in advance as to the meaning of life and the nature of god and the destiny of our souls, our belief would not be a leap of faith and it would not be a courageous act of humanity; it would just be... a prudent insurance policy.
Faith Courage Dark
I teach you the overman. man is something that shall be overcome. what have you done to overcome him? ... the time has come for man to set himself a goal. the time has come to plant the seed to his highest hope.
