More quotes by Ani DiFranco
Some people wear their smile like a disguise. Those people who smile a lot, watch their eyes. I know 'cause I'm like that a lot. You think everything's ok, and it is . . . 'till it's not.
Ani DiFranco
If you want to challenge the system, don't go to bed with it.
Ani DiFranco
I'm an atheist how unfortunate it is to assign responsibility to the higher up for justice amongst people.

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

Ani DiFranco
If you think you know what I'm doing wrong well you're gonna have to get in line.
Ani DiFranco
I know the biggest crime is just to throw up your hands, Say, This has nothing to do with me, I just want to live as comfortably as I can...
Ani DiFranco
I like to be an inspiration and an example of the idea that you can be independent, and it's no problem, and you can pay your rent, and it's empowering, and it's great. And that's true, but it also takes a really long time, and you have to have a lot of patience and a lot of conviction in why you want to remain independent.
Ani DiFranco
It's the ground that we walk on, it's where we sit, it's the language that we use. It's a difficult undertaking, but I think without healing that and creating more of a balance between the sexes, we will never have balance globally. I feel like I am going deeper and deeper into this space where I came from that I barely understood.
Ani DiFranco
Patriarchy is a fundamental imbalance underlying society And it's one we rarely address because it's so universal. But as I get older, I see that peace is a product of balance.
Ani DiFranco
Love sets fire to your schedule, And then calls an end to time.
Ani DiFranco

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.
