Sinead O'Connor quotes about
honesty wine mind
When I kissed you, you didn't mind. I thought I tasted of too many cigarettes, but you tasted like wine.
artistic-life my-boyfriend would-be
I have always had a good functioning in my artistic life, but I had problems mostly in my private life, I got very angry with my boyfriends and stuff...I would probably have good reasons to be angry but the volume would be too high, just getting to some level of wounding that perhaps was not appropriate to the actual offence committed.
swimming sea acting
When you're young, you don't really know quite what you're aiming at. You're very impulsive and acting on impulse, which is very important and valuable. But you're kind of swimming in a blind sea. When you get older, you have more of a sense of direction.
mistake believe free-will
Easy to keep faith. God is good. Only one mistake he made. Free will, therefore can't intervene unless we ask, but gospels show, when we ask we must believe we will be answered. Then all manner of things will be well.
god-exists
There is a God. God exists.
wall reality thinking
I think "God" is an off-putting word. I don't think there's a name for this. I think it's a presence that is best for us, but unfortunately, it can't intervene if we don't ask it, and religion has us talking to the wall because the god that religion is selling isn't the reality.
microphones
Nobody gets between me and my microphone.
thank-god phases fame
Fame is a curse... it was the worst phase of my life, which I thank God I'll never have to go through again.
hater remember hate-you
Remember what I told you. If they hated me, they will hate you.
news should exposed
Minors should not be exposed to what is going on in the so-called news.
doctors england cases
Unfortunately in my case, because of what I do for living, here in Ireland is very hard for me to find a doctor who can just deal with me as a person, that can get beyond Sinead O'Connor. I had to go to England to find a psychiatrist for my case.
going-away wish love-someone
If you really ever love someone, that doesn't go away, although you wish it would.
voice silence world
There's a weighing kind of overemphasis on sexuality, which disempowers music generally, because it silences all the other voices; it makes music a very powerless force for changing the world.
links spirituality feels
I always feel there is a link between music and spirituality.
