More quotes by Alanis Morissette
You are a worksmith and who cares for his brothers, whos not seduced by illusions or fair weather friends.
Alanis Morissette
When I was younger, I was terrified to express anger because it would often kick-start a horrible reaction in the men in my life. So I bit my tongue. 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
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
When I start writing songs and it turns into an overly belabored intellectual process, I just throw it out.
Alanis Morissette
I want to walk through life.
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
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
I think some fans want everything to stay they same because they want to stay the same.
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 found that the more truthful and vulnerable I was, the more empowering it was for me.
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
I felt like I was making a record under the radar, and that is my favorite way to do anything.
Alanis Morissette
I think God is in us. I think we manifest God in every moment.
Alanis Morissette
My brother says that I was writing songs about fate while he was off playing soccer. Now I tell him he's 33 and being a professional while I'm playing soccer with my friends. Ha!
Alanis Morissette
To whom do I owe the first apology? No one's been crueler than I've been to me.
Alanis Morissette
As a teen, I was both anorexic and bulimic.
Alanis Morissette
It's when someone has an agenda of their own for the record that it doesn't work for me.
Alanis Morissette
I hope that there is a very confused 14 year old girl out there who hears me speak or hears me sing and derives some sort of strength from that I heard that when I was 14 that's exactly what happened.
Alanis Morissette
I'm really clear about what my life mission is now. There's no more depression or lethargy, and I feel like I've returned to the athlete I once was. I'm integrating all the parts of me - jock, musician, writer, poet, philosopher - and becoming stronger as a result.
Alanis Morissette
I grew up in a very masculine environment. So I was around a lot of men, my brothers and their friends. There was just a lot of guys around.
