More quotes by 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
It can be very frustrating and very deflating to be constantly defined and described by other people, so I've stopped reading anything written about me, and I find it much healthier. I just sort of concentrate on what I do and don't worry too much about that.
Ani DiFranco
I seriously hate pop music and all things super-commercial.
Ani DiFranco
I'd rather be able to face myself in the bathroom mirror than be rich and famous.
Ani DiFranco
Change the narrative, change the laws.
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.
Ani DiFranco
I'm an all powerful amazon warrior, not just some sniveling girl.
Ani DiFranco
I was blessed with a birth and a death, and I guess I just want some say in between.
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
I still define myself by the places that I've been.
Ani DiFranco
I see a lot of young female performers who do not call themselves feminist, but would certainly believe in their own right to self-determination, and wouldn't want anybody to stop them from becoming themselves. They just refuse to recognize the relationship between their lives and those of other women, or feel any solidarity there.
Ani DiFranco
People need something or someone to fasten themselves to in order to reassure themselves that they are real.
Ani DiFranco
I'm pretty much a workaholic, but when you're doing what you love it's hard to think of a reason to stop.
Ani DiFranco
We're led by denial like lambs to slaughter, serving empires of style and carbonated sugar water.
Ani DiFranco
I've been a long time coming, and I'll be a long time gone. You've got your whole life to do something, and that's not very long.
Ani DiFranco
I seriously hate pop music and all things super-commercial, so I'd be hard pressed to feel embarrassed by anything I listen to. Besides, I have a three-year-old, so I don't have time for guilty pleasures anyway!
Ani DiFranco
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.
Ani DiFranco
spring is super in the supermarkets and the strawberries prance and glow never mind that they're all kinda tart and tasteless as strawberries go meanwhile wild things are not for sale anymore than they are for show so i'll be outside, in love with the kind of beauty it takes more than eyes to know
Ani DiFranco
My mother was a feminist, and she gave me some tools of self-possession and self-empowerment, but now that I have lived here for forty-three years, it's, like, whoa, there is just so much more to do, other than become myself. I'm still talking about it. I still drop the P-word, patriarchy, on unsuspecting people in everyday conversations.
Ani DiFranco
Don't treat me like I am something that happened to you.
Ani DiFranco
