More quotes by Alanis Morissette
My message to anyone who's afraid that they can't write music when they're happy is 'Just trust the passion.' The passion can write a lot of things.
Alanis Morissette
I can't not write, if I don't then I get really depressed.
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
To lie to yourself, and thereby to everyone else.
Alanis Morissette

Alanis Morissette
I remember how beautiful it was to fall asleep on your couch and cry in front of you for the first time. You were the best platform from which to jump beyond myself. What was wrong with me?
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
I didn't have high self-esteem when I was a teen-ager, as I think most teen-agers don't.
Alanis Morissette
And ultimately the people who produce my records, they know that they're here to serve the purpose of me expressing who I am at this period of time and augmenting that or pulling it forward and I love that process.
Alanis Morissette
I highly recommend getting older! There's less tendency to people-please.
Alanis Morissette
Being a sensitive empath is a beautiful thing as an artist, and it fosters a deep burning curiosity about why we do the things we do.
Alanis Morissette
I'm saying what a lot of people would want to say but are too embarrassed.
Alanis Morissette
It's like ten thousand spoons, when all you need is a knife.
Alanis Morissette
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.
Alanis Morissette
Unless I really loved it and felt really passionate about it, I would just kind of abort the song and start a new one.
Alanis Morissette
The person who knows HOW will always have a job. The person who knows WHY will always be his boss.
