More quotes by Ani DiFranco
Words are hotter than flames. Words are wetter than water.
Ani DiFranco
Imagine you're a girl, just trying to finally come clean, knowing full well they'd prefer you were dirty and smiling.
Ani DiFranco
Maybe you can keep me from never being happy, but you're not going to stop me from HAVING FUN!
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
It seems that different people have an idea of what I am, and what I should be. And then there's me.
Ani DiFranco
My life may not be something special But it's never been lived before.
Ani DiFranco
When all you can think of is your own personal problems, you have nothing to give to your society. If you're trying to figure out where your next meal is coming from, you can't go march on Washington.
Ani DiFranco
I'm searching, as we all are, for ways to feel good about myself. Certainly, looking in the mirror doesn't do it!
Ani DiFranco
I am a work in progress dressed in the fabric of a world unfolding.
Ani DiFranco
I know there is strength in the differences between us. I know there is comfort where we overlap.
Ani DiFranco
I don't care if they eat me alive, I've got better things to do then survive.
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
There are so many things that we have to be very concerned about. But I always come back to feminism. People look at me sideways now and are like, With everything going on, the destruction of the environment, these endless wars, this capitalism that has a stranglehold on our culture and our world and you're talking about feminism still?
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
Mostly, I stay out of social media conversations. But sometimes, they hunt me down and shoot at me anyway!
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
I know men are delicate origami creatures who need women to unfold them, hold them when they cry. But I am tired of being your savior and I am tired of telling you why.
Ani DiFranco
I'd rather be able to face myself in the bathroom mirror than be rich and famous.
Ani DiFranco
I cannot name this, I cannot explain this, and I really don't want to so just call me shameless.
Ani DiFranco
I always feel I have to take a stand, And there's always someone on hand To hate me for standing there. I always feel I have to open my mouth, And every time I do, I offend someone, somewhere.
Ani DiFranco
