I think the film [Dream of Life] is life-affirming.

My style of performance poetry came from the beatniks, Allen Ginsberg.

Patti Smith 371 quotes

I refuse to believe that Hendrix had the last possessed hand, that Joplin had the last drunken throat, that Morrison had the last enlightened mind.

Patti Smith 371 quotes

I hated the makeup. I hated all that pancake makeup. I didn't really like dressing for parts.

Patti Smith 371 quotes

I remember when you were born...

I remember when you were born, it was dawn and the storm settled near my belly. And I rolled in the grass and spit out the gas, and I lit a match and the void went flash. And the sky split and the planets hit, balls of jade dropped and existence stopped.

Patti Smith 371 quotes

We needed time to figure out ...

We needed time to figure out what all of this meant, how we were going to come to terms and redefine what our love was called. I learned from him that often contradiction is the clearest way to truth.

We never had any children," he said ruefully. "Our work was our children.

Patti Smith 371 quotes

What is the soul? What color ...

What is the soul? What color is it? I suspected my soul, being mischievous, might slip away while I was dreaming and fail to return. I did my best not to fall asleep, to keep it inside of me where it belonged.

Patti Smith 371 quotes

I think that there is an air ...

I think that there is an air of experience and aesthetic sophistication that weaves in with the amateur aspects of the film [Dream of Life]; it gives the film a certain elegance.

Patti Smith 371 quotes

Hey sister, you're just movin...

Hey sister, you're just moving too fast, you're screwing up the quota.

Patti Smith 371 quotes

Words are just rules and regulations to me.

Patti Smith 371 quotes

Within that moment was trust, compassion, and our mutual sense of irony. He was carrying death within him and I was carrying life. We were both aware of that, I know.

Patti Smith 371 quotes

Much has been said about Robe...

Much has been said about Robert, and more will be added. Young men will adopt his gait. Young girls will wear white dresses and mourn his curls. He will be condemned and adored. His excesses damned or romanticized. In the end, truth will be found in his work, the corporeal body of the artist. It will not fall away. Man cannot judge it. For art sings of God, and ultimately belongs to him.

Patti Smith 371 quotes

I can't judge how another per...

I can't judge how another person does their [music] work. Everyone has a choice and the music industry is much more open that it was when I was younger. Certain things are gone, others have developed, but everyone makes their choices. Pop music has always been about the mainstream and what appeals to the public. I don't feel it's my place to judge. I just look at things as a fan, I like or or I don't like it.

Patti Smith 371 quotes

I believe myself to be an art...

I believe myself to be an artist. That was my calling, to do my work, and what's most important to me is to do the best work I possibly can. And that is what means the most, that is what will endure.

Patti Smith 371 quotes

Patti, did art get us?' I loo...

Patti, did art get us?' I looked away, not really wanting to think about it. 'I don't know, Robert. I don't know.' Perhaps it did, but no one could regret that. Only a fool would regret being had by art; or a saint.

It was like being at an Arabian hoedown with a band of psychedelic hillbillies (p. 171).

Patti Smith 371 quotes

I really feel concerned about...

I really feel concerned about young people within our present culture. Our present culture, we have to change. Change is inevitable and I wasn't raised in our present culture but it has great pressure that as a young person I never had. Material pressure, social pressure, visual pressure, how you look, and I just try to appeal to young people to think for themselves, to be their own person, and to ask questions and also be very attentive to our planet and our environment.

Patti Smith 371 quotes

What I wanted to do in rock'n'roll was merge poetry with sonic scapes, and the two people who had contributed so much to that were Jimi Hendrix and Jim Morrison.

Patti Smith 371 quotes

My mother loved rock and roll. She loved high-energy music.
