More quotes by Alanis Morissette
I'm a liability to them - I'm a woman, I'm empowered, I'm an artist. I've had executives who can't come to my shows they're so scared of me. I've been a thorn in many people's sides just by existing.
Alanis Morissette
It's exciting for people to define who they are in relation to what I write - whether it be by loving or hating it.
Alanis Morissette

What influenced me was Tori Amos, who was unapologetic about expressing anger through music, and Sinead O'Connor. Those two in particular were really moving for me, and very inspiring, before I wrote 'Jagged Little Pill.'
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.

I make up new lyrics to well-known lullabies. Mostly because I don't actually know a lot of the lyrics.

I have as much rage as you have, I have as much pain as you do, I've lived as much hell as you have, and I've kept mine bubbling under for you.
Alanis Morissette
I find as an artist if I'm not expressed relatively consistently, I get really depressed.
Alanis Morissette
They're different kinds of challenges depending upon what phase of life I'm in.
Alanis Morissette
I am what I am Are you what you are or What?
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
I've been really enjoying writing articles and writing music and music for movies.
Alanis Morissette
When I pray, I'm just talking to what some people might call our higher selves: God, myself, my intuition, my heart. Whatever that is, that's where I go.
Alanis Morissette
In my life, anyway, anytime that I judge something to be rigidly right or wrong, it comes from fear.
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
Who I am inside determines how I feel about my body instead of the other way around
Alanis Morissette
To lie to yourself, and thereby to everyone else.
Alanis Morissette
I have a profound empathy for people who are in the public eye, whether they manifest it themselves or whether it happened by accident - it doesn't matter to me. I think there's a great misunderstanding of what it is to be famous.
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.
