Some people wear their heart up on their sleeve. I wear mine underneath my right pant leg, strapped to my boot.

More quotes by Ani DiFranco
We get a little further from perfection each year. I think that's called character. I think that's just how it goes.
Ani DiFranco
I'm a little hibernating animal. Anonymity is one of my favorite things. I mean, that's why I moved to New York when I was like 18, because there, there are just so many people that there's no one and you're just lost. You're completely invisible and I find that very liberating.
Ani DiFranco
A good brain ain't diddley, if you don't have the facts.
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
All the decent people, male and female, are feminists. The only people who are not feminists are those who believe that women are inherently inferior or undeserving of the respect and opportunity afforded men. Either you are a feminist or you are a misogynist. There is no box marked other.
Ani DiFranco
We get a little further from perfection, each year on the road, I guess that's what they call character, I guess that's just the way it goes, better to be dusty than polished, like some store window mannequin, why don't you touch me where i'm rusty, let me stain your hands
Ani DiFranco
My distraction's my defense against this lack of inspiration Against this slow deflation Yeah the further the horizon The more it holds my gaze The foreground's out of focus but you know I kinda hope it's just a phase Just a phase.
Ani DiFranco
Actually I don't know if honesty is a strength or some kind of weakness.
Ani DiFranco
At night when you're asleep, self-hatred's going to creep in. And you can blame it on the devil, the one who's bed you sleep in.
Ani DiFranco
These days, my main guitar amps have been Magnatone. They're beautiful. Magnatones have actual tremolo, which I recently learned about guitar amps. Often what guitar amps call vibrato is really just a volume Up and Down. But Magnatone has a true vibrato, which is pitch bending. And so, it's just a lush sound.
Ani DiFranco
Lying in bed, you know, you don't seem so tall.
Ani DiFranco
Patriarchy is like the elephant in the room that we don't talk about, but how could it not affect the planet radically when it's the superstructure of human society?
Ani DiFranco
Art may imitate life, but life imitates TV.
Ani DiFranco
Let's show them all how it's done, let's do it all imperfectly.
Ani DiFranco
I just don't know any other word than feminist that describes a person who believes women are people.
Ani DiFranco
And thoughts of no other man but you could possibly get through the picket lines to enter into my mind.
Ani DiFranco
My country tis of thee, to take swings at each other on talk show TV.
Ani DiFranco
I make such a good statistic, somebody should study me now somebody's gotta be interested in how I feel, just cause I'm here, and I'm real.
Ani DiFranco
Music has as many roles as people make it.
Ani DiFranco
I've never had a very closely connected family. My parents split up when I was young and I was living with my mom for a little while, then I was kind of just on my own really young. It wasn't some kind of global tragedy, it was just never really a very close-knit family. So there was support in the sense that they didn't stand in my way.
