Having the opportunity to express myself through music has been extremely cathartic for me my entire life. Sarah McLachlan Read Quote
I think… I’m perceived as an everyperson. There is no pedestal. I’m no different from anybody else. Sarah McLachlan Read Quote
I’m a bit of a perfectionist, and I want to give 100 percent to everything. Sarah McLachlan Read Quote
There’s no reason for anybody to jump out of bushes to take pictures of me. I’m not doing anything exciting. Sarah McLachlan Read Quote
I can look back over my earlier music, and it takes me back to the place I was emotionally. Sarah McLachlan Read Quote
In a sense, I’m always hearing music of some sort, whether it’s people talking or surface noise or whatever, because there is no privacy. So when I’m by myself, I just kind of like to be and reflect, and I can’t do that when I’m listening to music. Because it’s someone else’s reflections, not mine. Sarah McLachlan Read Quote
When you’re making music or playing a song, I find the moments when there are no instruments being played even stronger than when they are being played. Because they add tension. It’s also an ego-less thing – a place where you have no ego – when you’re with a bunch of musicians who stop and listen instead. Sarah McLachlan Read Quote
I would love to make my music and be completely anonymous, but that doesn’t work. You can’t have success and be faceless. Sarah McLachlan Read Quote
