Amy Winehouse




Girls talk to each other like men talk to each other. But girls have an eye for detail.
Amy Winehouse


Having listened to great songwriters like James Taylor and Carole King, I felt there was nothing new that was coming out that really represented me and the way I felt. So I started writing my own stuff.
Amy Winehouse

I don't think your ability to fight has anything to do with how big you are. It's to do with how much anger is in you.
Amy Winehouse

I just dress like... I'm an old black man. Sorry! Like I'm an old Jewish black man. I just dress like it's still the '50s.
Amy Winehouse

I know I'm talented, but I wasn't put here to sing. I was put here to be a wife and a mom and look after my family. I love what I do, but it's not where it begins and ends.
Amy Winehouse


I like pin-up girls. I'm more of a boy than a girl. I'm not a lesbian, though - not before a sambuca anyway.
Amy Winehouse

I really started writing music to challenge myself, to see what I could write.
Amy Winehouse

I really thought I was on the way out. My husband Blake saved my life. Often I don't know what I do, then the next day the memory returns. And then I am engulfed in shame.
Amy Winehouse


I saw a picture of myself when I came out of the hospital. I didn't recognize myself.
Amy Winehouse

I'm of the school of thought where, if you can't sort something out for yourself, no one can help you. Rehab is great for some people but not others.
Amy Winehouse

If I died tomorrow, I would be a happy girl.
Amy Winehouse


My justification is that most people my age spend a lot of time thinking about what they're going to do for the next five or ten years. The time they spend thinking about their life, I just spend drinking.
Amy Winehouse

Since I was 16, I've felt a black cloud hangs over me. Since then, I have taken pills for depression.
