To me the biggest irony of this lifetime that I'm living is that for someone who thrives in the public eye in the creative ways that I do, I actually don't enjoy being in the public eye.

More quotes by Alanis Morissette
I really do see that anywhere I am, whether it's doing interviews a hundred in a row, that every situation I'm in, I'm at choice in the matter.
Alanis Morissette
It's when someone has an agenda of their own for the record that it doesn't work for me.
Alanis Morissette
But once I acclimated and really used fame for what it was offering me as a tool to serve my life purpose of inspiring and contributing, then it started to get fun again.
Alanis Morissette
First I was 'angry,' then 'spiritual.' Now I don't know what I am.
Alanis Morissette
Writing a song doesn't heal things. Even if the song comes up with a solution, it's still only a theory. Going out and living my lyrics is a whole other deal. That takes courage.
Alanis Morissette
I live with some of my best friends from high school, very commune-like, in my house. It's my hippie way of life.
Alanis Morissette
I remember how beautiful it was to fall asleep on your couch and cry in front of you for the first time. You were the best platform from which to jump beyond myself. What was wrong with me?
Alanis Morissette
I would not have discredited every one of their compliments. It was your approval I wanted, your congratulations.
Alanis Morissette
It's not hard to feel afraid and insecure. I still fight an inner-critic voice, definitely. I hear it a lot.
Alanis Morissette
With songwriting I spend a lot of time living life, accruing all these experiences, journaling, and then by the time I get to the studio I'm teeming with the drive to write.
Alanis Morissette
We're all ants. I'm a glittery little ant.
Alanis Morissette
I need to be performing. I need to be acting. I need to be designing a condo and ripping down walls and buying new plates and looking at fashion magazines. There always has to be some movement in the artistic department for me to not get really, really low.
Alanis Morissette
Your political views really denote your spiritual views.
Alanis Morissette
The joke that you laid in the bed that was me.
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
Let's grease the wheel over tea, let's discuss things in confidence. Let's be outspoken, let's be ridiculous, let's solve the world's problems.
Alanis Morissette
Getting married and starting a family has been a lifelong goal and one that I have persevered through different paths up to it!
Alanis Morissette
What influenced me was Tori Amos, who was unapologetic about expressing anger through music, and Sinead O'Connor. Those two in particular were really moving for me, and very inspiring, before I wrote 'Jagged Little Pill.'
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
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
