I can jump ship and swim-- that the ocean will hold me, that there's got to be more than this boat I'm in.
Ani DiFranco
I'm aware enough, I guess, of American labor history.
Ani DiFranco

Ani DiFranco
And this vague little smile is my all purpose expression the meaning of which I will leave to your discretion.

Ani DiFranco
When I need to wipe my face, I use the back of my hand, And I like to take up space just because I can, And I use my dress to wipe up my drink. I care less and less what people think.
Ani DiFranco

Ani DiFranco
I know my mind is made of matter but I need to know exactly what is the matter at it's core? Because my heart is just a muscle and simply put, it's sore.
Ani DiFranco

Ani DiFranco
In any marginalized community, whether people identify themselves or not affects us all.
Ani DiFranco
fate is not just whose cooking smells good, but which way the wind blows
Ani DiFranco
Science chases money, and money chases its tail, and the best minds of my generation cannot make bail.
Ani DiFranco
When all you can think of is your own personal problems, you have nothing to give to your society. If you're trying to figure out where your next meal is coming from, you can't go march on Washington.
Ani DiFranco
I had a little bit of resistance to the idea of taking energy away from my work, and the baby comes along and, lo and behold, that's exactly what happens.
Ani DiFranco
Lying in bed, you know, you don't seem so tall.
Ani DiFranco
Why do you think I write these feminist songs, to try and teach myself to respect myself. You know, it's not because I'm a hero.
Ani DiFranco
I'd rather suffer the consequences of truth than of silence.
Ani DiFranco
I use my dress to wipe up my drink, I care less and less what people think.
