Alanis Morissette
So many boys, so little time.

Alanis Morissette
I felt like I was making a record under the radar, and that is my favorite way to do anything.
Alanis Morissette
Writing the record for me - every record is almost a surprise. When people ask me, what are the themes you want to grapple with on this one? I have no idea until the record's finished.
Alanis Morissette
I think God is in us. I think we manifest God in every moment.
Alanis Morissette
Canada has a passive-aggressive culture, with a lot of sarcasm and righteousness. That went with my weird messianic complex. The ego is a fascinating monster. I was taught from a young age that I had to serve, so that turned into me thinking I had to save the planet.
Alanis Morissette
In the past, I had workaholic issues.
Alanis Morissette
