Alanis Morissette
Music helps you find the truths you must bring into the rest of your life.
Alanis Morissette
Breakups are a horrible thing for almost everybody I know. For someone who is a love addict, it's debilitating.

You live, you learn, you love, you learn, you cry, you learn, you lose, you learn, you bleed, you learn, you scream, you learn
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
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
We're all ants. I'm a glittery little ant.

Alanis Morissette
When I'm really, really angry, if I'm privileged enough to be next to someone who can hold my anger, I'll definitely take them up on holding the bucket.
Alanis Morissette
I'm lost, but I'm hopeful.
Alanis Morissette
When someone says that I'm angry it's actually a compliment. I have not always been direct with my anger in my relationships, which is part of why I'd write about it in my songs because I had such fear around expressing anger as a woman.
Alanis Morissette
In one breath, I can say that we are God, but in another I have to say that we aren't deities.
Alanis Morissette
Society, magazines, posters, music videos, investment bankers. A lot of times, in my past anyway, looking within wasn't overly encouraged. Pretty much everybody proclaimed that fame would give me power and fortune.
Alanis Morissette
I'm sorry to myself, for treating me worse than I would anybody else.
Alanis Morissette
I'm a bit of an alchemist sorceress. I've collected probably 1500 oils from around the planet over the last ten years. I'm kind of obsessed with the sensuality of it.
Alanis Morissette
Ageism works in both directions. As a teenager in the public eye, people would talk condescendingly to me. When you get older there's this feeling that you have to start carving up your face and body. Right now I'm in the middle ground - I think women in their thirties are taken seriously.
