But I can't confront the doubts I have. I can't admit that maybe the past was bad, and so, for the sake of momentum I'm condemning the future to death so it can match the past.

More quotes by Aimee Mann
I thought everything was interesting. I wanted to go scuba diving and I wanted to learn how to surf. Because I grew up in the 60s girls were not allowed to do anything. As I've gotten older and realized that women can do things like that I thought, 'Why not? Now's the time.'
Aimee Mann
It's not easy in this phosphorescent gloom telling waking dreams apart anyhow.
Aimee Mann
Anybody who cares less about wanting to be cool, I think, is more interesting.
Aimee Mann
Save me from the ranks of the freaks who suspect they can never love anyone.
Aimee Mann
All that I need now is someone with the brains and the know-how to tell me what I want.
Aimee Mann
I think, to be happy is to be interested and engaged.
Aimee Mann
Everybody kind of understands, Oh yeah you take drugs and it does something to your brain and then you can't stop. It's easier to describe that shame, that horrible feeling of not being able to control your own life.
Aimee Mann
I probably would've kept slogging on that same chord change, because there's a tendency to have that happen. You get into the cadence in your mind, and it's hard to make the kind of left turn that you probably need to keep it really interesting.
Aimee Mann
In the '70s, everybody thought drugs were just good times. People didn't really know about drug addiction, or that such a thing existed. When I grew up in the '70s I thought you had to take drugs. It was almost like I didn't think you had a choice.
Aimee Mann
If your standards are low, you're going to stop pretty early on in the process.
Aimee Mann
I wanted to try to write songs on the piano to get a different flavor.
Aimee Mann
It really doesn't matter to me what people say about me anymore.
Aimee Mann
People don't buy records anymore. I don't know how people can support themselves.
Aimee Mann
I don't believe in asking people to spend $15 on something they've never heard before. That's just unreasonable.
Aimee Mann
I'm selling more records on my own than I did on major labels.
Aimee Mann
You know what, the drummer is my manager. He's busy. And I'm busy. I don't need the dough, though. But having said that, there's a limit to how much bad music I wanna play. I did it when I was young, and some of the music was OK, but it wasn't great.
Aimee Mann
You drew a bird that was here, a kind of sweet chanticleer. But with a terrible fear that the cage couldn't tame
Aimee Mann
When things are really great, it just means everything's in it's place.
Aimee Mann
There's a lot of music that sounds like it's literally computer-generated, totally divorced from a guy sitting down at an instrument.
Aimee Mann
I don't consider myself a great writer, but I would like to think that I can at least proof- read.
