I was so horny in school it felt like my body was filled with electricity. I felt like I had neon bones or something.
Patti SmithI longed to read everything I possibly could, and the things I read in turn produced new yearnings.
Patti SmithAll the traumas I went through separating art from writing don't exist anymore. That's why I love being in rock 'n' roll. It's a whole life thing.
Patti SmithI don't have an image of myself, when I'm walking down the street, like I'm a rock star or something. I'm a human being, I'm a friend, I'm a mom, I'm a writer, and I'm an artist. I do play electric guitar and all of that but in the end I'm just a person. I really don't live like a rock star, economically or socially. I still live a pretty simple life beside the traveling aspect of it.
