More quotes by Ani DiFranco
I am a work in progress dressed in the fabric of a world unfolding.
Ani DiFranco
What bugs me is that you believe what you're saying. What bothers me is that you don't know how you feel. What scares me is that while you're telling me stories, you actually believe that they are real.
Ani DiFranco
The stronger I am in my personal life, the more energy I have to look outward, to address my society.
Ani DiFranco
I wonder what you look like under your t-shirt. I wonder what you sound like when you're not wearing words. I wonder what we have when we're not pretending.
Ani DiFranco
Taken out of context I must seem so strange.
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
I hate it when people don't recognize the work of women as being universal, or having any import to the world at large, as opposed to men's work, which is generally tends to be seen as more universal - men's writing about their own experience tends to be put in a broader context.
Ani DiFranco
Either you are a feminist or you are a sexist/misogynist. There is no box marked 'other'.
Ani DiFranco
The world is my oyster. The road is my home. And I know that I'm better off Alone.
Ani DiFranco
Then I show up steady ready and proud and I find I've forgotten how to talk out loud. Isn't it just like you to bring me to my knees?
Ani DiFranco
We're led by denial like lambs to slaughter, serving empires of style and carbonated sugar water.
Ani DiFranco
One thing that Barack Obama promised, one thing that we all know we must do is evolve our industry and our technology to being green and sustainable. We need to move away from fossil fuels and nuclear power, both of which I think spell doom for human society.
Ani DiFranco
Before Katrina, you didn't see criticism of the Bush administration in the media. Here they are, stealing elections, enacting illegal wars, huge crimes against humanity and democracy, and you didn't even see criticism. It wasn't until Katrina that people started to come down on them.
Ani DiFranco
I knew naturally as a child not to forfeit my creativity to a world that's all laid out for me. I'll look at everything around me and vow to keep in mind that alla this is just someone's idea. It could have just as well been mine.
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
Art is why I get up in the morning, but my definition ends there.
Ani DiFranco
I envy your ignorance, I hear that it's bliss.
Ani DiFranco
I think it is very useful to know ourselves, but when we start naming and labeling, that is dangerous, that gets problematic. It negates that things are always changing. Besides, it's hard to pin a label onto something that's always moving.
Ani DiFranco
We are wise, wise women. We are giggling girls.
Ani DiFranco
If you turn on the TV, you're going to get a certain palate, and if you go looking underneath the surface, there's a whole lot of stuff there that I think a lot of our generation would be really interested in.
