Lucinda Williams quotes about
speaking
Where they're just speaking in tongues, like they're on a drug or something... Would I really do that if that's what it would take?
songs
My approach to recording and all that is pretty organic. It just has to do with all the songs I wrote; go in and record them.
grab might time
Sometimes I might borrow something from a song I started a long time ago and see if I can grab something.
togetherness feels
I'm just like everyone. I like to feel togetherness with someone.
ideas interesting world
It's really about living in your head... just looking out at the world, then going back into your head and tossing around a lot of ideas and coming out with something interesting to say.

I'd rather play a few nights at the Fillmore than play one night at an arena.
unrequited-love writing unrequited
Theres so many other things to write about than unrequited love.
dad writing sleep
I grew up around poets and novelists and my dad wrote poems about everything - from a cat sleeping in a window to a car wreck he passed on the highway. I learned not to censor myself: that was one of things I learned in my apprenticeship, my creative-writing apprenticeship with my dad.

I'm not just a doormat. I'm not just being stepped on all over the place. If you look at the bulk of my material, it's about trying to find some strength through that.
my-boyfriend broke-up spending
I just broke up with my boyfriend, and I've been spending more time alone than I'd like.
commitment snakes strikes
I'm fascinated by the whole concept of snake handling. When you read about the Pentecostal snake handlers, what strikes you the most is their commitment.
trying statements excessiveness
I am trying to get right with God. I'm sort of making a statement about the excessiveness.
compassion want bad-manners
Have compassion for everyone you meet, even if they don’t want it.
