More quotes by Ani DiFranco
I'm sounding out the silence, avoiding all the words.
Ani DiFranco
It's just hard to travel in the shadow of regret. In fact, it's so hard that I actually haven't left yet.
Ani DiFranco
I used to be a superhero no one could touch me, not even myself. You are like a phone booth I somehow stumbled into, and now look at me - I am just like everybody else.
Ani DiFranco
I walk like I'm on a mission 'cause that's the way I groove. I got more and more to do and less and less to prove.
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
And if there's anything I do it's change and grow. I'm just a living being. Every year of my life I seem to learn that everything I know is wrong.
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
The world is my oyster. The road is my home. And I know that I'm better off Alone.
Ani DiFranco
Science chases money, and money chases its tail, and the best minds of my generation cannot make bail.
Ani DiFranco
I've been trying to learn how to not be so conflicted about things like my own anger. I've always had a place in my music for my anger as a way of compensating for not having a mechanism to express it in my everyday life. So I've been trying to be more true to myself, and that helps me to chill out a little bit. But politically, uh-uh. No.
Ani DiFranco
What we all have to admit to is that one man cannot save us. Unless we start energizing ourselves, all standing behind him with all of the force of our collective power then we can't expect mountains to be moved. And that is not exactly happening, we are a very comfortable population.
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
We have to really be intentional right now about holding the media accountable, and taking back the discourse and terms of discussion. It's been hijacked.
Ani DiFranco
You've already put more than enough energy into worry. That's all women have been allowed to do, historically.
Ani DiFranco
I think the gay community should get smart and drop the word marriage. Do you really need to change every right-wing Christian to make sure you get your equal rights? Eyes on the prize, we should be sticking to getting equal rights.
Ani DiFranco
Mostly, I stay out of social media conversations. But sometimes, they hunt me down and shoot at me anyway!
Ani DiFranco
Privilege is a headache, that you don't know that you don't have.
Ani DiFranco
As any mom knows, having a baby is an extremely creative act and to love and create a baby, it's on par with any other creative act that we could come up with.
Ani DiFranco
I've been waiting for sleep to offer up the day with both hands.
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
