Joni Mitchell

"I wish I had a river I could skate away on"

"You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone"

"We are stardust, we are golden, and we've got to get ourselves back to the garden"

"I've looked at life from both sides now, from up and down and still somehow"

"The only thing to do is to do what you must do to keep your love alive"

"I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure, but I know that deep down I'm good"

"Don't give yourself away, don't let them define you"

"Creativity is the greatest rebellion in existence"

"Art is the effort that man makes to express his feeling about life"

"I came to the city and lived like a queen with no money"

"The river runs deeper than you can wade"

"I wish I had a friend like you, someone I could talk to"

"You've got to laugh to keep from cryin'"

"The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that the very existence of that world becomes irrelevant to you"

"Time is a carousel, spinning slowly round and round"

"I'm in the garden now, but sometimes I still think about being in the city"

"Music is the language of the spirit"

"We all have the power to make a difference"

"Love is the answer and you know that for sure"

"I paint my pictures in the dark"

"The truth is like a lion; you don't have to defend it. Let it loose; it will defend itself"

"Life is a highway and you must ride it for yourself"

"Happiness is not something that just happens to you; you have to create it"

"I've worked my fingers to the bone and what do I have to show for it"

"Dreams are the seeds of change"

"You can't step in the same river twice"

"I am a work in progress"

"The only constant is change itself"

"I follow the music wherever it leads me"

"Life is like a kaleidoscope, it changes with every turn"
