To split yourself in two is just the most radical thing you can do
Ani DiFranco
The fundamental imbalance that is behind all of the other social diseases is patriarchy.
Ani DiFranco
Those who call the shots are never in the line of fire.

What I like about being independent [in the music industry] is that anybody who does play the album on the radio and anybody who does choose to write in the media does so because they want to, because they like it or because they find something interesting there, not because they have to.
Ani DiFranco
It's the ground that we walk on, it's where we sit, it's the language that we use. It's a difficult undertaking, but I think without healing that and creating more of a balance between the sexes, we will never have balance globally. I feel like I am going deeper and deeper into this space where I came from that I barely understood.

It don't take a weather man to look around and see the weather, Jeb said he'd deliver Florida folks and boy did he ever, and we hold these truths to be self evident number one George W Bush is not president. Number two America isn't a true democracy. And number three the media is not fooling me.

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
Every time I say something they find hard to hear, they chalk it up to my anger, and never to their own fear.
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

Ani DiFranco
Up up up up up up points the spire of the steeple but god's work isn't done by god it's done by people
Ani DiFranco
Virtue is relative at best, there's nothing worse than a sunset when your driving due West.
Ani DiFranco
Men make angry music and it's called rock-and-roll women include anger in their vocabulary and suddenly they're angry and militant.
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
I don't hate being compared with female musicians. I don't mind that at all. I have no problem with seeing connections between women's work.
Ani DiFranco
In any marginalized community, whether people identify themselves or not affects us all.
Ani DiFranco
We have a complete void of progressive politics in this country right now. The will of the people goes ignored and unrealized. I'm searching for the people that can enter the political system, a strong third party. We need to consolidate.
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
Why do our kids have to show us what gun control is all about?
