More quotes by Ani DiFranco
I would like to perfect the art of being studiously aloof
Ani DiFranco
Sometimes the beauty is easy. Sometimes you don't have to try at all. Sometimes you can hear the wind blow in a handshake. Sometimes there's poetry written right on the bathroom wall.
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.
Ani DiFranco
When I was four years old they tried to test my IQ, they showed me this picture of three oranges and a pear. They asked me which one is different and does not belong they taught me different was wrong.
Ani DiFranco
We've got ego's like hairdos.
Ani DiFranco
Love is a piano dropped from a fourth story window, and you were in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Ani DiFranco
spring is super in the supermarkets and the strawberries prance and glow never mind that they're all kinda tart and tasteless as strawberries go meanwhile wild things are not for sale anymore than they are for show so i'll be outside, in love with the kind of beauty it takes more than eyes to know
Ani DiFranco
I think I'm a very solitary person. To actually not be anonymous is a bit claustrophobic for me.
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
Well, it's really gratifying to me to have a stage and some bright lights and a microphone. They're tools and opportunities, and to be able to just pull somebody up on stage with me and point at them is a great feeling.
Ani DiFranco
Privilege is a headache, that you don't know that you don't have.
Ani DiFranco
You broke me bodily. The heart ain't the half of it, And I'll never learn to laugh at it In my good natured way. In fact, I'm laughing less in general, But I learned a lot at my own funeral. And I knew you'd be the death of me, So I guess that's the price I pay.
Ani DiFranco
Feminism is not only for women It's something everyone can participate in, and evolve together, as the first step in the right direction. I see feminism as a tool to achieve that balance and peace.
Ani DiFranco
I can't wait to get back to New York City where at least when I walk down the streat, no one ever hesitates to tell me exactly what they think of me.
Ani DiFranco
Art is why I get up in the morning but my definition ends there. You know I don't think its fair that I'm living for something I can't even define.
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
While out in TV Nation, under darkening skies, the resistance is just waiting to be organized.
Ani DiFranco
...words are some of the most powerful and important things I know....Language is the tool of love and the weapon of hatred. It's the bright red warning flag of danger--and the stone foundation of diplomacy and peace.
Ani DiFranco
Love was always the goal, and my point every step of the way was that nothing is wrong with love, no matter what flavor it comes in.
Ani DiFranco
I've been saying the Occupy Movement has got the ball rolling, and now we need to take the fight to the great indoors!
