Alanis Morissette
The whole idea of emotions being something we can't escape as humans, but that deep suffering that comes from resisting them, we can move out of that just by not resisting anymore. But it takes a really brave warrior soul to sit there in these emotions that admittedly don't feel good in the body.

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 think God is everything. Human beings created the punitive, vengeful deity who considers us to be innate sinners.
Alanis Morissette
How long before my dignity is reclaimed?
Alanis Morissette
Most of the songs are, in a roundabout way, actually addressed to myself, there's a certain aspect of the songs that's very confessional, very unadulterated...It was a very unfettered, spiritual experience.
Alanis Morissette
Beauty is now defined by your bones sticking out of your decolletage. For that to be the standard is really perilous for women.
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
the truth of who we are is innate goodness, and the whole journey is really about removing any obstacle or false belief that keeps us from knowing that
Alanis Morissette
