"As far as more recognition goes, I am happy with the amount of love and respect I have received from other artists and the public. Of course, I would love more, and think I deserve it"
About this Quote
The subtext is less vanity than accounting. Quatro is one of those artists whose influence outpaces their myth: a pioneer of hard-edged glam, a template for later generations of women who got to be loud, leather-clad, and commercially viable without being treated as a novelty act. Her line quietly indicts the machinery of recognition that still treats certain originators as footnotes while their successors get the glossy retrospectives.
What makes the quote work is its balance of warmth and refusal. She validates the love she has, which keeps the statement from sounding bitter, but she also rejects the idea that appreciation must be rationed or that wanting more is gauche. It’s a compact critique of cultural memory: the public can adore you in the moment and still fail to file you correctly in history. Quatro is asking for the record to match the reality - not as a plea, but as a straightforward claim.
