Edith Piaf Said


All I've done all my life is disobey.
Edith Piaf

As far as I'm concerned, love means fighting, big fat lies, and a couple of slaps across the face.
Edith Piaf

Death does not exist.
Edith Piaf

Death is the beginning of something.
Edith Piaf

Don't care what people say. Don't give a damn about their laws.
Edith Piaf

For me, singing is a way of escaping. It's another world. I'm no longer on earth.
Edith Piaf

I don't want to die an old lady.
Edith Piaf

I think you have to pay for love with bitter tears.
Edith Piaf

I want to make people cry even when they don't understand my words.
Edith Piaf

I wouldn't mind at all coming back to earth after my death.
Edith Piaf

I'd like to see one person - just one - who would own up to having been a coward.
Edith Piaf

I've always wanted to sing, just as I've always known that one day I would have my own niche in the annals of song. It was a feeling I had.
Edith Piaf

I've been thinking about Jesus. Don't you find it a bit strange that, since He was living with His family and all, He up and left them just when they needed him most?
Edith Piaf

If God has allowed me to earn so much money, it is because He knows I give it all away.
Edith Piaf

Money? How did I lose it? I never did lose it. I just never knew where it went.
Edith Piaf

People say that I could sing the phone book and make it sound good.
Edith Piaf

Singing is a way of escaping. It's another world. I'm no longer on earth.
Edith Piaf

Tell me what you'd like to hear me sing. I'll sing whatever you like, after which I'll take up a collection, if you don't mind.
Edith Piaf

To be successful in my native France, where people speak the same language and understand me, is nothing.
Edith Piaf
