More quotes by Alanis Morissette
There's a continuity between what I care about in any form: I care about it in my music, in article-writing, in how I dress, in how I live, in my relationships, in how I navigate paparazzi, how I decorate my home. There's such a continuity between everything that I don't really care what form it shows up in.
Alanis Morissette
They're different kinds of challenges depending upon what phase of life I'm in.
Alanis Morissette
If someone hates or loves something, then right on. I can't rob them of that. I'm not going to try and change their mind. Something's been triggered in them to react so emotionally.
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
I highly recommend getting older! There's less tendency to people-please.
Alanis Morissette
These precious illusions in my head did not let me down when I was defenseless, and parting with them is like parting with invisible best friends.
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.
Alanis Morissette
Well life has a funny way of sneaking up on you When you think everything's okay and everything's going right And life has a funny way of helping you out when You think everything's gone wrong and everything blows up In your face
Alanis Morissette
Music will always be a part of my life. I love music and I don't care how many units I sell.
Alanis Morissette
I listen to my records and I think, 'Wow, these are really great appetizers. I haven't even considered what I'm going to order for the full entree meal yet.'
Alanis Morissette
I firmly believe that the only reason why I'm on this planet, the only reason why I live, breathe, and exist is, that it's my duty to be as honest as possible in my art.
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
All I can promise myself and everyone else is that this record is a snapshot of thisperiod in my life. It will be that by default.
Alanis Morissette
the truth of who we are is innate goodness, and the whole journey is really about removing any obstacle or false belief that keeps us from knowing that
Alanis Morissette
I have been running so sweaty my whole life Urgent for a finish line And I have been missing the rapture this whole time Of being forever incomplete
Alanis Morissette
I salute you for your courage, and I applaud your perseverance, and I embrace you for your faith in the face of adversarial forces.
Alanis Morissette
When I'm really, really angry, if I'm privileged enough to be next to someone who can hold my anger, I'll definitely take them up on holding the bucket.
Alanis Morissette
It's a joke to think that anyone is one thing. We're all such complex creatures. But if I'm going to be a poster child for anything, anger's a gorgeous emotion. It gets a bad rap, but it can make great changes happen.
Alanis Morissette
I am what I am Are you what you are or What?
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.
