The way I play guitar is very, very hard and I bloody myself incredibly without the tape. And the nails are my picks.
Ani DiFranco
Image
I see a lot of connections between folk and punk music just because they're both subcorporate music - I mean, traditionally.

Image
I'm pretty much a workaholic, but when you're doing what you love it's hard to think of a reason to stop.

God help you if you are a phoenix and you dare to rise up from the ash a thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy while you are just flying past

I am still praying for revolution.

The world is my oyster. The road is my home. And I know that I'm better off Alone.

The minute my child was born, I was reborn as a feminist. It's so incredible what women can do... birthing naturally, as most women do around the globe, is a superhuman act. You leave behind the comforts of being human and plunge back into being an animal.

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.

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.

I would like to perfect the art of being studiously aloof

Don't tell me what they did to you as though you had no choice. Tell me, isn't that your picture? Isn't that your voice.

Those who call the shots are never in the line of fire.

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.

You're trying to fight gravity on a planet that insists that love is like falling, and falling is like this.

My political mission is as acute as ever. For me, in addition to kind of looking at the world and trying to engage in my society politically, having the kid around sort of makes me check in with myself. I think you're all busy trying to fix the world, but what about yourself?

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.

Who says I like right angles? These are not my laws, these are not my rules.

I'd rather suffer the consequences of truth than of silence.
