The thing I always default to is that I'll always be here to write songs.
Alanis Morissette
Image
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.

Image
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.

You live, you learn, you love, you learn, you cry, you learn, you lose, you learn, you bleed, you learn, you scream, you learn

Meeting the man of my dreams and then meeting his beautiful wife

Image
It's not hard to feel afraid and insecure. I still fight an inner-critic voice, definitely. I hear it a lot.

Who I am inside determines how I feel about my body instead of the other way around
Alanis Morissette
Image
A brave action is often followed by grief. Do not let my resistance to grief stop the brave action.

Image
I love the universality of music and how it can viscerally connect people from culture to culture, regardless of anything. It kind of levels everything out and connects us. That universal sound thing is a big deal to me.
Alanis Morissette
Image
I think it's child abuse to have someone in the public eye too young. Society basically values wealth and fame and power at the cost of well-being. In the case of a child, it's at the cost of someone's natural development. It's already hard enough to develop.

I breastfeed and I'll be breastfeeding until my son is finished and he weans.
Alanis Morissette
Image
We eat when we're full, and we hoard all the rest. With our hands on remotes, we say, yes, we're the best.

Image
How long before my dignity is reclaimed?
Alanis Morissette
Image
A good man often appears gauche simply because he does not take advantage of the myriad mean little chances of making himself look stylish. Preferring truth to form, he is not constantly at work upon the facade of his appearance.
Alanis Morissette
Image
In my life, anyway, anytime that I judge something to be rigidly right or wrong, it comes from fear.
Alanis Morissette
Image
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.

Image
I'm saying what a lot of people would want to say but are too embarrassed.
Alanis Morissette
Image
So forgive me, love, if I cry in your shower. So forgive me, love, for the salt in your bed. So forgive me, love, if I cry all afternoon.

Image
When I start writing songs and it turns into an overly belabored intellectual process, I just throw it out.
Alanis Morissette
Image
I think it's irresponsible when celebrities imply they're doing it all themselves. My son has aunties and uncles around all the time, and my husband is my hero. He's really full-on. I couldn't do it any other way.
