More quotes by 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
Infidelity is a deal breaker for me. I've broken up with people over it. You can't do monogamy 90 percent of the time.
Alanis Morissette
Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are.
Alanis Morissette
What's that line from TS Eliot? To arrive at the place where you started, but to know it for the first time. I'm able to write about a breakup from a different place. Same brokenness. Same rock-bottom. But a little more informed, now I'm older. Thank God for growing up.
Alanis Morissette
When we [people] are operating from the belief that we're not connected, it feels so dangerous and scary and vulnerable and awful.
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
I firmly believe that the only reason why I'm on this planet, the only reason why I live, breathe, and exist is, that it's my duty to be as honest as possible in my art.
Alanis Morissette
How about not equating death with stopping?
Alanis Morissette
Anytime there's separatism going on. It happens all the time, because the illusion before us is that we are separate. It gives us this sense of egoic identity, which is lovely in its own way.
Alanis Morissette
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
I breastfeed and I'll be breastfeeding until my son is finished and he weans.
Alanis Morissette
I would never judge someone's intrigue with the spoils of fame, because I went through that.
Alanis Morissette
I'm saying what a lot of people would want to say but are too embarrassed.
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
The ego is a fascinating monster.
Alanis Morissette
There is no better feeling than when you write something you know is a piece of you and that, at some point, is going to communicate with someone else.
Alanis Morissette
Europe seems a little softer, but in America it's harsh. In L.A., where I live, it's all about perfectionism.
Alanis Morissette
I'm a leave-the-bathroom-door-open nudist, which is sometimes disconcerting for my friends.
Alanis Morissette
I think there is no better way to invite a human being to view their body differently than by inviting them to be an athlete, by revering one's body as an instrument rather than just an ornament.
Alanis Morissette
I was extremely moved by the plight of Tsunami victims and I was inspired to try to make a difference.
