Life is a series of problems to figure out how to solve gracefully and with dignity. That is what life is and I can't see it any other way.

More quotes by Aimee Mann

Image
Everyone's just extracting meaning and feeling and emotion from almost every aspect of music, and I think that for me, it's a huge antidote to that to have a concept album.
Aimee Mann
Image
It's funny, because my last record was a lot about isolation and people living in separate worlds that other people can't even understand, which drug addiction is the perfect negative example of.
Aimee Mann
Image
It's not easy in this phosphorescent gloom telling waking dreams apart anyhow.
Aimee Mann
Image
I think, to be happy is to be interested and engaged.
Aimee Mann
Image
It's more important for me to have a good record with good music and be part of a movie that's good and where the music is used in a really great way. That's the important thing. The other stuff you want to say about it, I don't care.

Save me from the ranks of the freaks who suspect they can never love anyone.
Aimee Mann
Image
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
Image
People don't buy records anymore. I don't know how people can support themselves.
Aimee Mann
Image
For me, there's a fine line between telling a story that's fictional with lots of details and then removing yourself too much from it, so it's bloodless, a little too fictional.
Aimee Mann
Image
The king of the jailhouse and the queen of the road think sharing the burden will lighten the load.
Aimee Mann
Image
At a major label you can start to feel that you're working for them, and that any work you do, you're never going to see any benefit.
Aimee Mann
Image
It really doesn't matter to me what people say about me anymore.
Aimee Mann
Image
It's in the dictionary. And when I find what it is, I'll write it down in case it comes up again, I'll be certain to avoid it.
Aimee Mann
Image
I don't envy anybody trying to start a career right. There really is no music business left, in a lot of ways.
Aimee Mann
Image
All that I need now is someone with the brains and the know-how to tell me what I want.
Aimee Mann
Image
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
Image
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.
Aimee Mann
Image
One of the things I've really gotten past in the last couple of years is the idea of being made uncomfortable by the way things appear, rather than how things are. Clearly in this business you have to contend with a lot of that.
Aimee Mann
Image
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.'
