Lesley Gore quotes
" Actually, the funny thing is, after all these years, I've got all these new songs to learn for the show we're doing at Joe's Pub, so it's kind of fun to get down and rehearse new things, and also rethink some of the older songs, how we're going to do them. "

Lesley Gore
" And I thought, you know, a little gender confusion makes a better person. A little adversity in life at an early age. It's character building. "

Lesley Gore
" And one day, instead of my lesson, the piano player and I went into a studio right in the building and we put down some demos, just piano/voice. "

Lesley Gore
" And that's what got me to the piano, that's what got me up in the morning: a blank piece of paper and a hope to have something by the end of the day. "

Lesley Gore
" Doing Hullabaloo and doing Ed Sullivan were frightening but wondrous experiences, doing the T.A.M.I. show, performing in front of 50,000 people at Lake Ponchartrain - these are memories that are amazing. "

Lesley Gore
" Given that there was that era of girl group music and it's still very popular, but I think if you looked at the chart from that time you would see many more men on it. Because the industry, they were catering to young girls. I mean, that's what they thought their audience was. "

Lesley Gore
" I can remember in the early '60s that there were a couple of really dynamic women performers at the time - Brenda Lee, there was Connie Francis. "

Lesley Gore
" I don't know any other lifestyle. I get up in the morning and I really do feel that the world is my oyster, and I start that way, the same as I would if I were preparing to write a song: put a blank piece of paper up on the piano and you go for it. "

Lesley Gore
" I had many people that I idolized who were singers like Sarah Vaughan and Dinah Washington, but these weren't exactly women I could call up every day and say, Hey, how's it going, you know? "

Lesley Gore
" I have a partner of 23 years and I have a cocker spaniel who turned two - what's today? - she turned two on Friday, June 4th. Little Billie, named after Billie Holiday, one of my favorite singers. "

Lesley Gore
" I just kind of lived my life naturally and did what I wanted to do. "

Lesley Gore
" I just never found it was necessary because I really never kept my life private. Those who knew me, those who worked with me were well aware. "

Lesley Gore
" I meet a lot of young people in the Midwest, and I saw what a difference a show like In the Life can make to their lives in some of these small towns where, you know, there are probably two gay people in the whole damn town. "

Lesley Gore
" I think I turned to writing really just to wake up in the morning and be a musician and to have something to do, and feel like a musician every day even if I wasn't working. "

Lesley Gore
" I think the record industry, by and large what's left of it, is still totally homophobic. I think it's much less so in the film industry now, but the record industry, it's always been a man's world. "
