More quotes by Ani DiFranco
We have to really be intentional right now about holding the media accountable, and taking back the discourse and terms of discussion. It's been hijacked.
Ani DiFranco
Art may imitate life, but life imitates TV.
Ani DiFranco
In a man's world, I am a woman by birth and after 19 times around I have found - they will stop at nothing once they know what you are worth.
Ani DiFranco
I still define myself by the places that I've been.
Ani DiFranco
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
And if there's anything I do it's change and grow. I'm just a living being. Every year of my life I seem to learn that everything I know is wrong.
Ani DiFranco
Vulnerability is something that I negotiate every day.

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
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
Who says I like right angles? These are not my laws, these are not my rules.
Ani DiFranco
Subtract out the impact and the fall is all you get. So here's two beers to remember why and three more to forget.
Ani DiFranco
I basically get stereotyped a lot in terms of being a girl and writing 'chick' music for teenage girls or something. I think, if anything, the press kind of, because of my gender and my age, tends to kind of relegate my work to this sort of special-interest group. It's part of the cultural dynamic, I guess.
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
Science chases money, and money chases its tail, and the best minds of my generation cannot make bail.
Ani DiFranco
We are taught to view pain as an enemy, not a teacher. But pain is the right hand of growth and transformation. Pain is in the history of all human wisdom.
