I hate show business. – Joni Mitchell
We have a war dictator who was not elected, he snuck in. so he punishes people that threaten him in any way, or even say something he doesnt like. It has no resemblance to democracy. – Joni Mitchell
In some ways, my gift for music and writing was born out of tragedy, really, and loss. – Joni Mitchell
Eventually, with success, I started to feel more and more isolated – like I didnt have a community of artists. – Joni Mitchell
I could play it safe by recording songs that are familiar, but am I expanding myself as an artist by doing covers? Its a catch-22. Its called show business: The word business is in it, and youve got to be a businessman. But then again, you have to be true to yourself as an artist. – Donny Osmond
