Joan Baez

That's all nonviolence is - organized love.

If people have to put labels on me, I'd prefer the first label to be human being, the second label to be pacifist, and the third to be folk singer.

You don't get to choose how you're going to die, or when. You can only decide how you're going to live. Now.

I'm lucky that I have whatever I had that makes me have a successful career, if you will.

My style is Edie Sedgwick meets Grace Jones, or Audrey Hepburn meets Salt 'n' Pepa. Strong and feisty but still classic.

My first career ambitions involved turning into a boy; I intended to be either a railway guard or a knight errant.
