Edith Piaf

Singing is a way of escaping. It's another world. I'm no longer on earth. ”

Money? How did I lose it? I never did lose it. I just never knew where it went. ”

If God has allowed me to earn so much money, it is because He knows I give it all away. ”

I think you have to pay for love with bitter tears. ”

As far as I'm concerned, love means fighting, big fat lies, and a couple of slaps across the face. ”

To sing is to bring to life; impossible if the words are mediocre, however good the music. ”

All I've done all my life is disobey. ”

People say that I could sing the phone book and make it sound good. ”

I've been thinking about Jesus. Don't you find it a bit strange that, since He was living with His family and all, He up and left them just when they needed him most? ”

I wouldn't mind at all coming back to earth after my death. ”
