Madonna on her music and her movie:

"I don’t have a record deal right now with anybody," she said. "I don’t know how I’m going to get my music out the next time I make a record. I haven't really been focused as much as I should be on the music part of my career, because this movie has consumed every inch of me.

"Between that and my children, I don’t have the time or energy for anything else."

Madonna on arguing:

“I think it’s good to get into arguments with people and have them say, ‘That sucks’ or ‘You’re crazy’ or ‘That’s cheesy’ or ‘What do you think of this?’ If anything, it helps you understand what you believe in and what you’re passionate about and what is s—. I think it’s important to have a sounding board.”
