For the ocean is big and my boat is small. Find the courage.
Alanis Morissette
I'm a liability to them - I'm a woman, I'm empowered, I'm an artist. I've had executives who can't come to my shows they're so scared of me. I've been a thorn in many people's sides just by existing.
Alanis Morissette
Your choice of armor was your intellect.
Alanis Morissette
I saw music as a way to entertain people and take them away from their daily lives and put smiles on their faces, as opposed to what I see it being now, which is a way for me to actually communicate, and a way for me to tap into my subconscious.
Alanis Morissette
When I was younger, I was terrified to express anger because it would often kick-start a horrible reaction in the men in my life. So I bit my tongue. I was left to painstakingly deal with the aftermath of my avoidance later in life, in therapy or through the lyrics of my songs.
Alanis Morissette
I'll keep evolving and put that into my songs.
Alanis Morissette
All of my unconscious fears were in my face about letting go of the current identity. A lot of the thoughts that came up were fear-based and false, so I had to work to let them go.
Alanis Morissette
I highly recommend getting older! There's less tendency to people-please.
Alanis Morissette
I can't not write, if I don't then I get really depressed.
Alanis Morissette
When I pray, I'm just talking to what some people might call our higher selves: God, myself, my intuition, my heart. Whatever that is, that's where I go.
Alanis Morissette
My message to anyone who's afraid that they can't write music when they're happy is 'Just trust the passion.' The passion can write a lot of things.
Alanis Morissette
I think when someone blindly projects and it's showing up in the form of envy or hate - and I actually think they're synonymous - that's when I feel the most afraid and disconnected and vulnerable. Like whenever I don't feel safe in my own hands, in terms of my not being tender or merciful with myself, or when we're treating each other that way.
Alanis Morissette
And if I had a preference, it would be to be able to not be in the studio until 4 in the morning.
Alanis Morissette
At one point, I was just perceived as only being angry, but now I'm being perceived as angry, peaceful, and spiritual.
Alanis Morissette
I make up new lyrics to well-known lullabies. Mostly because I don't actually know a lot of the lyrics.
Alanis Morissette
I've been doing a lot of different cross-training and kickboxing and Capoeira and kite surfing, and I've just really been back to what I consider my original athletic self.
Alanis Morissette
I get angry at myself for staying in relationships way too long.
Alanis Morissette
I'll be writing records until I'm dead, whether people like it or not!
Alanis Morissette
I didn't have high self-esteem when I was a teen-ager, as I think most teen-agers don't.
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.
