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.

How long before my dignity is reclaimed?
Alanis Morissette
I can't not write, if I don't then I get really depressed.
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
You are a worksmith and who cares for his brothers, whos not seduced by illusions or fair weather friends.
Alanis Morissette
Freedom lies at the heart of my willingness to lose everything
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 when someone blindly projects and it's showing up in the form of envy or hate - and I actually think they're synonymous - that's when I feel the most afraid and disconnected and vulnerable. Like whenever I don't feel safe in my own hands, in terms of my not being tender or merciful with myself, or when we're treating each other that 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 want to walk through life.
Alanis Morissette
I was always such a people-watcher. I would sit on street corners alone and watch people and make up stories about them in my head. Then, all of a sudden, I was the one being watched.
Alanis Morissette
In the past, I had workaholic issues.
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
When I pray, I'm just talking to what some people might call our higher selves: God, myself, my intuition, my heart. Whatever that is, that's where I go.
Alanis Morissette
If I could sell 500 million records every time, it would be great. But I've also had the luxury experience of having it when I was a teenager, in a very kind of model version of it.
Alanis Morissette
I did commit to myself that I would not jump back into being the workaholic that I can be before I gave myself an honest opportunity to create the marriage of my dreams and to create the beginning of the family of my dreams, and that took a hot second.
Alanis Morissette
Whether you’re checked in or checked out, you’re always on a spiritual journey.
Alanis Morissette
Partnership is the way. Dictatorial win-lose is so old-school.
Alanis Morissette
I found that the more truthful and vulnerable I was, the more empowering it was for me.
Alanis Morissette
I'm saying what a lot of people would want to say but are too embarrassed.
Alanis Morissette
Typically I go in the studio and whatever I'm contemplating that day will wind up being a song. I don't come in with lyrics... I just go in and let it happen.
