More quotes by Ani DiFranco
Strangers are exciting, their mystery never ends. But, there's nothing like looking at your own history in the faces of your friends.
Ani DiFranco
I don't hate being compared with female musicians. I don't mind that at all. I have no problem with seeing connections between women's work.
Ani DiFranco
No one's gonna sympathize when we crash, they'll say you hit what you head for, you get what you ask.
Ani DiFranco
Maybe you don't like your job, maybe you didn't get enough sleep, well nobody likes their job, nobody got enough sleep. Maybe you just had the worst day of your life, but you know, there's no escape, there's no excuse, so just suck up and be nice.

Ani DiFranco
Privilege is a headache, that you don't know that you don't have.

When I was a teenager in the '80s, I was the only girl in the guitar shop. Now if you walk into a music store, it's mostly teenage girls. It's great! It's an expansion of possibilities for young women, finding a way to tools even if they aren't directly handed those tools by adults.
Ani DiFranco
I do believe that music has an intense power to connect us together, to inspire us to become ourselves.
Ani DiFranco
I was attracted to a lot of different art forms - dancing, painting. But there's something about music that people hold so close. It's such a powerful art form, and that's why I live for it.
Ani DiFranco
When I was like sixteen, I was a total chick I had big hair. I was seen as this attractive girl, and I would get all this attention. And then I just cut off my hair, and I quit playing that game.

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 don't take good pictures 'cause I have the kind of beauty that moves.
