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.

Breakups are a horrible thing for almost everybody I know. For someone who is a love addict, it's debilitating.
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
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.
Alanis Morissette
Society, magazines, posters, music videos, investment bankers. A lot of times, in my past anyway, looking within wasn't overly encouraged. Pretty much everybody proclaimed that fame would give me power and fortune.
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
I would never judge someone's intrigue with the spoils of fame, because I went through that.
Alanis Morissette
All of my unconscious fears were in my face about letting go of the current identity. A lot of the thoughts that came up were fear-based and false, so I had to work to let them go.
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
I've been doing a lot of different cross-training and kickboxing and Capoeira and kite surfing, and I've just really been back to what I consider my original athletic self.
Alanis Morissette
In my life, anyway, anytime that I judge something to be rigidly right or wrong, it comes from fear.
Alanis Morissette
I can't not write, if I don't then I get really depressed.
