Extraits de son livre SEX
He takes a drink, she goes inside,
He starts to scream, the vases fly
He wishes that she wouldn't cry
He's not in love with her anymore.
[…]
She's had enough, she says the end,
But she'll come back, she knows it then,
A chance to start it all again, till death do us part.

Citations sur la vie de Madonna
I am a high-visibility person, and I know that they know that I’m completely compassionate about their choice in life, their life-style, and I support it. To have a person like me saying that is helpful to them. They appreciate that.

Paroles de chansons
All you need is your own imagination, so use it that's what it's for!
Go inside, for your finest inspiration, your dreams will open the door!
It makes no difference if you're black or white, if you're a boy or a girl.
If the music's pumping it will give you new life!
You're a superstar, yes, that's what you are, you know it!

So I took the road less travelled by and I barely made it out alive!

Citations du monde de Madonna
This book does not condone unsafe sex. These are fantasies I have dreamed up. Like most human beings, when I let my mind wander, when I let myself go, I rarely think of condoms. My fantasies take place in a perfect world, a place without AIDS. Unfortunately the world is not perfect and I know that condoms are not only necessary but mandatory.

Paroles de chansons
Any mistakes I've made are war wounds I wear proudly because they've shaped me more than anything else. I can only hope that if I'm patient and diligent enough, if I continue to grow as an artist and a human being, people will come to realize that I'm not some callous, power-hungry, sex-crazed control freak who sings occasionally. They'll see me for what I am. But just in case they never do, the people important to me, my friends and family, they know. They've always known, and that's enough for me.
