Amanda Palmer Trying Quotations

Sean and Paul have been following the band's growth for the past two years and have a real understanding of what we're trying to capture. The record is going to be fast and furious, immediate and raw.

The minute I spend any energy defending myself, explaining myself, or in the worst case scenario, trying to please those who are criticizing me, I will, you know, just fall off a cliff.

There are so many people, so many artists, so many magazines, so many theater companies, so many people trying to raise money for so many things that it's easy to look around and just feel powerless or helpless, because even if you have some resources, you can't help everybody.

I'm still trying to express my truth, my place in the world, my belief.

I do what I want. I try to be nice to everybody. When I fail, I try to apologize.

I don't try to make anybody outside happy.
