More quotes by Ani DiFranco
I mean, playing music at home and writing and hanging out with my guitar is kind of medicinal for me, but when I bring the songs to people on stage, it's very joyous.
Ani DiFranco
We're led by denial like lambs to slaughter, serving empires of style and carbonated sugar water.
Ani DiFranco
Maybe you can keep me from never being happy, but you're not going to stop me from HAVING FUN!

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
People need something or someone to fasten themselves to in order to reassure themselves that they are real.

Ani DiFranco
Don't treat me like I am something that happened to you.
Ani DiFranco

Ani DiFranco
The scary truth is, you have to scratch some veneer off to gauge where the moral fiber really is in certain pockets of society. It's raw. It's scary. But it gives us a place to work with.
Ani DiFranco
One thing I do find in the lost generation or something is a kind of abhorrence of history, you know, like it's boring, dumb, or just not interesting. I think it's terribly interesting if you can get your head around how it relates to where you're standing right here and now.
Ani DiFranco
I don't know if there are artists out there who love their own records. I haven't met any, and I'm kind of extreme in the other direction, but therein lies the impetus to keep working and keep making new songs and new records.
Ani DiFranco
Those who call the shots are never in the line of fire.
Ani DiFranco
I sing sometimes for the war that I fight, 'Cause every tool is a weapon if you hold it right.
Ani DiFranco
My idea of feminism is self-determination, and it's very open-ended: every woman has the right to become herself, and do whatever she needs to do.
Ani DiFranco
We are wise, wise women. We are giggling girls.
Ani DiFranco
Taking me seriously is a big mistake. I certainly wouldn't.
Ani DiFranco
I always wanted to be commander-in-chief of my one-woman army, But I can envision the mediocrity of my finest hour.
