More quotes by Alanis Morissette
Running has made being depressed impossible. If I'm going through something emotional and just go outside for a run, you can rest assured I'll come back with clarity.
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
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 think God is everything. Human beings created the punitive, vengeful deity who considers us to be innate sinners.
Alanis Morissette
I was motivated by just thinking that if you had all this external success that everyone would love you and everything would be peaceful and wonderful.
Alanis Morissette
I highly recommend getting older! There's less tendency to people-please.
Alanis Morissette
I happen to be lucky in that I knew what I wanted to do as far as a career since I was nine years old.
Alanis Morissette
When someone says that I'm angry it's actually a compliment. I have not always been direct with my anger in my relationships, which is part of why I'd write about it in my songs because I had such fear around expressing anger as a woman.
Alanis Morissette
In one breath, I can say that we are God, but in another I have to say that we aren't deities.
Alanis Morissette
Don't be surprised if I love you for all that you are.
Alanis Morissette
But I love to entertain. My vocation is to accrue all these experiences, to write about them, to get them out of my system, to not get sick, and then to share them publicly.
Alanis Morissette
You are a worksmith and who cares for his brothers, whos not seduced by illusions or fair weather friends.
Alanis Morissette
...and what it all comes down to is that I haven't got it all figured out just yet.
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 guess what people forget sometimes is that when I write songs, I write them sometimes in about 20 minutes.
Alanis Morissette
I'll be writing songs till I die. There's just no question.
Alanis Morissette
My yearn for home is broadened Patriotism expanded By callings from beyond So I pack my things Nothing precious All things sacred
Alanis Morissette
What I try to keep in mind is that there are going to be a lot of articles that are going to be misrepresentative of what I'm about as a person and as a writer.
Alanis Morissette
Making a movie requires 20 to 500 people to make and a lot of money and the stakes are a lot higher.
Alanis Morissette
I'll write records until I'm dead. And then maybe even after that!
