Medicine comes with hope: the hope of having a healthy child, the hope of being able to raise your family.
I think my daughters have a pretty healthy self-awareness but I can’t speak on their behalf.
I think people in Great Britain are a bit jaded sometimes.
I think life on the road really suits very egotistical men. It’s set up for kings.
I sang a lot as a little girl and entered competitions. I loved singing in choirs, but it was as I got older that I really found my voice.
I love to make music and stay grounded.
I don’t want to be owned by a corporation and obliged to make a certain type of album. I want to be free.
I like where I live here, in London.
I have different hats; I’m a mother, I’m a woman, I’m a human being, I’m an artist and hopefully I’m an advocate. All of those plates are things I spin all the time.
I have always been a very visual person and a keen observer.
I don’t take myself as seriously as some people think, and I’d hate anyone to think I was preaching. That’s the last thing I want.
I’m not really keen on comebacks. Eurythmics was an incredible thing. When I look back on that work, I feel very satisfied with it.
I don’t have clear-cut positions. I get baffled by things. I have viewpoints. Sometimes they change.
I’ve thought about what is an alternative word to feminism. There isn’t one. It’s a perfectly good word. And it can’t be changed.
I’m not intensely private – I talk a great deal about my life and my work – I just don’t play the game to excess.
I didn’t want to be perceived as a girly girl on stage.
It’s hard to tell how far women’s individuality has come in the past twenty years.
I’m a female but I have a masculine side and I’m not going to negate that part of myself.
I find beauty in a very independent state. It lives quietly. It’s there to be discovered.
I watch ‘Mad Men,’ I knit scarves, I cook and am very, very normal. Honestly.
