Quotes
By Billie Holiday
"I can't stand to sing the same song the same way two nights in succession, let alone two years or ten years. If you can, then it ain't music, it's close-order drill or exercise or yodeling or something, not music."
"Somebody once said we never know what is enough until we know what's more than enough."
"Don't threaten me with love, baby. Let's just go walking in the rain"
"Love is like a faucet, it turns off and on."
"If I'm going to sing like someone else, then I don't need to sing at all."
"A kiss that is never tasted, is forever wasted."
"I hate straight singing. I have to change a tune to my own way of doing it. That's all I know."
"If I don't have friends, then I ain't nothing."
"If you copy, it means you're working without any real feeling."
"I'm always making a comeback, but nobody ever tells me where I've been."
"I never had a chance to play with dolls like other kids. I started working when I was six years old."
"No two people on earth are alike, and it's got to be that way in music or it isn't music."
"Singing songs like 'The Man I Love' or 'Porgy' is no more work than sitting down and eating Chinese roast duck, and I love roast duck."
"Sometimes it's worse to win a fight than to lose."
