I think I'm a very solitary person. To actually not be anonymous is a bit claustrophobic for me.
Ani DiFranco
It's not important to be defined, it's only important to use your time well.
Ani DiFranco
My writing just kind of exists out there in the air-it's all sort of intended as spoken, or sung, word. So, to commit them to the page...that way was kind of intimidating to me, yet intriguing, to try to reflect the rhythms and connotations and emotions that you can deliver, speaking-wise, on a page.
Ani DiFranco
I know the biggest crime is just to throw up your hands, Say, This has nothing to do with me, I just want to live as comfortably as I can...

Ani DiFranco
And thoughts of no other man but you could possibly get through the picket lines to enter into my mind.
Ani DiFranco
and I try to draw the line but it ends up running down the middle of me most of the time.

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.

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.

I was supposed to be cool about this, yeah, I remember - cool was the plan. Tried to keep it all under wraps, but the wraps kept going slack. I keep turning round, I keep coming back.
Ani DiFranco
I fight with love and i laugh with rage....you gotta live light enough to see the humor, and long enough to see some change.
Ani DiFranco
When I look around I think this, this is good enough And I laugh at whatever life brings because when I look down, I just miss all the good stuff and when I look up, I just trip over things.
