More quotes by Alanis Morissette
Every time I scratch my nails down someone else's back, I hope you feel it.
Alanis Morissette
Once I know who I'm not, then I'll know who I am.
Alanis Morissette
There's cleanliness to how I eat now. I'm much more in tune with my body, so now that I'm so in tune based on having become a semivegan, I can tell what foods affect energy levels. I can tell when I've been eating particularly high nutrient foods or I can tell when my glycemic levels are all over the place.
Alanis Morissette
I was left to painstakingly deal with the aftermath of my avoidance later in life, in therapy or through the lyrics of my songs.
Alanis Morissette
Love is thick and it swallows me whole.
Alanis Morissette
The thing I always default to is that I'll always be here to write songs.
Alanis Morissette
I rejected the God that was portrayed as masculine and judgmental and cruel at times. The concept of us bring not worthy to receive him is something I used to say every Sunday in church, and eventually I just couldn't say it with any conviction.
Alanis Morissette
When pain brings you down, don't be silly, don't close your eyes and cry, you just might be in the best position to see the sun shine.
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
Life has a funny way of helping you out when you think that everything's gone wrong.
Alanis Morissette
The more vulnerable and the more confused the song is, the equal and opposite effect is how I feel after having written it.
Alanis Morissette
You are a worksmith and who cares for his brothers, whos not seduced by illusions or fair weather friends.
Alanis Morissette
Then I realized that secrecy is actually to the detriment of my own peace of mind and self, and that I could still sustain my belief in privacy and be authentic and transparent at the same time. It was a pretty revelatory moment, and there's been a liberating force that's come from it.
Alanis Morissette
That I would be loved even when I numb myself. That I would be good even when I am overwhelmed. That I would be loved even when I was fuming. That I would be good even if I was clingy.
Alanis Morissette
We eat when we're full, and we hoard all the rest. With our hands on remotes, we say, yes, we're the best.
Alanis Morissette
For four to six months at a time, I would barely eat. I lived on a diet of Melba toast, carrots, and black coffee.
Alanis Morissette
We're all ants. I'm a glittery little ant.
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
Stay and respond and expand and include and allow and forgive and enjoy and evolve and discern and inquire and accept and admit and divulge and open and reach out and speak up, this is utopia.
Alanis Morissette
I'm about 90 percent vegan. I think veganism is really well suited for training, at least for me anyway.
