More quotes by Ani DiFranco
I can't wait to get back to New York City where at least when I walk down the streat, no one ever hesitates to tell me exactly what they think of me.
Ani DiFranco
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 do believe that music has an intense power to connect us together, to inspire us to become ourselves.
Ani DiFranco
Emptiness has its solace in that there's nothing left to take.
Ani DiFranco
I don't like my language watered down, I don't like my edges rounded off.

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

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
I know there is strength in the differences between us. I know there is comfort where we overlap.
Ani DiFranco
I sing sometimes for the war that I fight, 'Cause every tool is a weapon if you hold it right.
Ani DiFranco
Vulnerability is something that I negotiate every day.
Ani DiFranco
At night when you're asleep, self-hatred's going to creep in. And you can blame it on the devil, the one who's bed you sleep in.
Ani DiFranco
They can call me crazy if I fail, all the chance that I need, is one-in-a-million and they can call me brilliant if I succeed.
Ani DiFranco
I see a lot of connections between folk and punk music just because they're both subcorporate music - I mean, traditionally.
Ani DiFranco
I have earned my disillusionment.
Ani DiFranco
All the wrong people have the power of suggestion and the freedom of the press is meaningless if nobody asks a question.
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.
