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.

To split yourself in two is just the most radical thing you can do

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.

It's great being your own boss, but then, you know, you make your own mistakes, you know, and you own them. You know, so it's empowering, and it's also humbling along the way.

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.

There are so many things that we have to be very concerned about. But I always come back to feminism.
Ani DiFranco
Image
I'd rather suffer the consequences of truth than of silence.
Ani DiFranco
Image
I'll walk the plank and I'll jump with a smile, cause if I'm gonna go down I'm gonna do it with style.

Image
When I need to wipe my face, I use the back of my hand, And I like to take up space just because I can, And I use my dress to wipe up my drink. I care less and less what people think.
Ani DiFranco
Image
And thoughts of no other man but you could possibly get through the picket lines to enter into my mind.

Let's show them all how it's done, let's do it all imperfectly.

People need something or someone to fasten themselves to in order to reassure themselves that they are real.

You rhapsodize about beauty, and my eyes glaze. Everything that I love is ugly. I mean really, you would be amazed. Just do me a favor, it's the least that you can do, just don't treat me like I am something that happened to you.

I do believe that music has an intense power to connect us together, to inspire us to become ourselves.

No one's gonna sympathize when we crash, they'll say you hit what you head for, you get what you ask.

Art is why I get up in the morning, but my definition ends there.
