Zitat des Tages von Paloma Faith:
I have a lot of admiration for people who've been in relationships a long time, married for years.
I don't have a daily routine, beyond brushing my teeth. It changes every day.
I mean, my music career and my acting career - if I want to do them to the extent that I eventually do want to get to, it's going to be a bit of a balancing act. But I'm hoping they'll just go hand in hand.
A lot of men do have a fear of my ultra-femininity. Sometimes people say I look like a drag queen, that I look scary, but I think that's a fear of my confidence. Most women in contemporary culture pare down their femininity, so there's a slight androgyny about them, and I think men have got used to seeing that.
If I go out with no make-up and a tracksuit on, nobody comes up to me. And if they do, I won't do a photo because I wouldn't want any photographic evidence.
I love interesting people with eccentric stories and outsiders of the world.
I'm so used to changing time zones that I can sleep at any time. I'm rarely ever tossing and turning - if I am, it's really a big deal.
I want my shows to be eerie and mysterious.
I get plenty of, 'Is that song about me?' from men but I just tell them to get over themselves.
Anybody who says they don't want to be seen on a show which has millions of people watching it at one time when they're in the business of selling records is a bit silly.
Curvy is something to be proud of.
I don't understand why the accent you speak in has to indicate what level of intellect you have.
I'm not one for sightseeing or going around the shops when I'm on holiday. I do enough shopping when I'm at home, and like to have a complete break when I'm away.
We all get old, but I always say the skinny, pretty girls will be screwed.
I think soul is soul. I don't see new soul as any different to old soul.
I like someone with a really good and dark sense of humour.
I was mainly raised by a working mum who didn't have much time or inclination for making food. So I had three or four basic meals: fish fingers and a tomato; a packet scotch egg and a tomato; pasta with a tin of tomatoes; and extra mild plastic-y cheddar chopped into cubes with bits of cucumber.
When I do my shows, it's really cross-generational. Sometimes there's three generations there.
My favourite authors are Milan Kundera and Jeanette Winterson.
I really hate bureaucracy and the idea that I'm not a free person.
I'd never go on a reality show - it's too invasive.
I'd rather die than let somebody get the better of me.
I'm proud of being British, but I think our aristocracy is overrated.
I don't have a competitive bone in my body, so the last thing I want to do is be competing with people.
Dressing up is like therapy; I feel better in myself when I've made an effort.
I think I'd be a million times more successful and more iconic if I was a singer in the '40s. I'd be allowed a level of mystery, and I think I'd suit that decade.
Ever since I was little, my mum used to choose an outfit for me and lay it on the bed so I'd know what I was wearing the next day. I never went to a uniformed school, so I always had an outfit - and I never really grew out of that, I don't think.
I'm a serial monogamist.
Cinema affects everything, from the way I get dressed to how I build my stages.
You know, my mum's always encouraged me and never made my gender an issue, I guess. She brought me up to believe in equality, as opposed to feminism or sexism - so it just meant that my gender was not relevant to what I was capable of achieving.
I'd rather be on my own than be with a violent man.
I think everybody should focus on inner beauty.
My desire to experiment comes from my attention-deficit approach to cosmetics. I just get really bored, really easily.
I love going to the cinema. Whenever I get time off, that's where I go.
If I see something that inspires me, I'll dress like it.
I'm really into food; it's one of my favourite things - everything from potato waffles to lobster.
