More quotes by Alanis Morissette
If I could sell 500 million records every time, it would be great. But I've also had the luxury experience of having it when I was a teenager, in a very kind of model version of it.
Alanis Morissette
As long as I can say what it is that I need to say, then I'll fit whatever I'm trying to say around a melody.
Alanis Morissette
Why are you so petrified of silence, here can you handle this? Did you think about your bills, your ex, your deadlines or when you think you're gonna die? Or did you long for the next distraction.
Alanis Morissette
I do feel blessed to be in the public eye so I can share what I believe. But I think it would be extremely disappointing if I were to count on it to provide happiness. I've come to realize that any time I do that, the fulfillment is short-lived at best.
Alanis Morissette
In a perfect world, there would be no censorship, because there would be no judgement.
Alanis Morissette
I'm a leave-the-bathroom-door-open nudist, which is sometimes disconcerting for my friends.
Alanis Morissette

Alanis Morissette
I was born in '74, so I missed out on all the great early '60s and early '70s.
Alanis Morissette
Then I realized that secrecy is actually to the detriment of my own peace of mind and self, and that I could still sustain my belief in privacy and be authentic and transparent at the same time. It was a pretty revelatory moment, and there's been a liberating force that's come from it.
Alanis Morissette
I have as much rage as you have, I have as much pain as you do, I've lived as much hell as you have, and I've kept mine bubbling under for you.
Alanis Morissette
What part of our history's reinvented and under rug swept? What part of your memory is selective and tends to forget?
Alanis Morissette
Partnership is the way. Dictatorial win-lose is so old-school.
Alanis Morissette
Once I know who I'm not, then I'll know who I am.
Alanis Morissette
The more vulnerable and the more confused the song is, the equal and opposite effect is how I feel after having written it.
Alanis Morissette
I'll be writing songs till I die. There's just no question.
Alanis Morissette
I'm quite obsessed with the idea of nailing the girl friendship. It's such an art, so delicate.
Alanis Morissette
I breastfeed and I'll be breastfeeding until my son is finished and he weans.
Alanis Morissette
Love is thick and it swallows me whole.
Alanis Morissette
Running has made being depressed impossible. If I'm going through something emotional and just go outside for a run, you can rest assured I'll come back with clarity.
Alanis Morissette
Most of the songs are, in a roundabout way, actually addressed to myself, there's a certain aspect of the songs that's very confessional, very unadulterated...It was a very unfettered, spiritual experience.
Alanis Morissette
