I'll walk the plank and I'll jump with a smile, cause if I'm gonna go down I'm gonna do it with style.
Ani DiFranco
I would rather have these things weigh on my mind. At the end of this tunnel of guilt and shame, there must be a light of some kind.
Ani DiFranco
We negotiate with chaos for some sense of satisfaction.
Ani DiFranco
Some people wear their smile like a disguise. Those people who smile a lot, watch their eyes. I know 'cause I'm like that a lot. You think everything's ok, and it is . . . 'till it's not.

Ani DiFranco
I don't like my language watered down, I don't like my edges rounded off.
Ani DiFranco
A lot of women these days, a lot of young women don't want to call themselves feminists. You have this cheap, hideous 'girl power' sort of fad, which I think is pretty benign at best, but at worst, I think it's a way of taking the politics out of feminism and making it some kind of fashion.
Ani DiFranco
People need something or someone to fasten themselves to in order to reassure themselves that they are real.
Ani DiFranco
I will not be afraid to let my talent shine.
Ani DiFranco
I want somebody who sees the pointlessness and still keeps their purpose in mind I want somebody who has a tortured soul ...some of the time
Ani DiFranco
I envy your ignorance, I hear that it's bliss.
Ani DiFranco
Someone's got to be interested in how I feel, just because I'm here and I'm real.
