More quotes by Ani DiFranco
My political mission is as acute as ever. For me, in addition to kind of looking at the world and trying to engage in my society politically, having the kid around sort of makes me check in with myself. I think you're all busy trying to fix the world, but what about yourself?
Ani DiFranco
People talk about my image like I come in two dimensions, like lipstick is a sign of my declining mind, like what I happen to be wearing the day that someone takes my picture is my new statement for all womankind.
Ani DiFranco
First decide what you got to do, then go out and do it. All we can do is to see each other through it.
Ani DiFranco
We are wise women, we are giggling girls. We both carry a smile to show when we're pleased, we both carry a switchblade in our sleeves.
Ani DiFranco
What makes you so lavish that you can afford to spend every sober moment feeling angry and bored?
Ani DiFranco
The bathroom mirror has not budged, the woman who lives there can tell the truth from the stuff they say and looks me in the eye- says do you prefer the easy way? No? Well ok then, dont cry.
Ani DiFranco
i do it for the joy it brings because i'm a joyful girl because the world owes me nothing and we owe each other the world
Ani DiFranco
Maybe you can keep me from never being happy, but you're not going to stop me from HAVING FUN!
Ani DiFranco
My distraction's my defense against this lack of inspiration Against this slow deflation Yeah the further the horizon The more it holds my gaze The foreground's out of focus but you know I kinda hope it's just a phase Just a phase.
Ani DiFranco
I'm an atheist how unfortunate it is to assign responsibility to the higher up for justice amongst people.
Ani DiFranco
I fear that Donald Trump will continue to be followed around by the media in its totality as he continues to rail against Hillary Clinton.
Ani DiFranco
Someday you're going to get hungry and eat most of the words you just said.
Ani DiFranco
I seriously hate pop music and all things super-commercial.
Ani DiFranco
Art is why I get up in the morning, but my definition ends there.
Ani DiFranco
We get a little further from perfection, each year on the road, I guess that's what they call character, I guess that's just the way it goes, better to be dusty than polished, like some store window mannequin, why don't you touch me where i'm rusty, let me stain your hands
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
Now I wonder who is gonna be president: Tweedle Dumb, or Tweedle Dumber-- And who is gonna have the big block buster box office this summer.
Ani DiFranco
One thing I do find in the lost generation or something is a kind of abhorrence of history, you know, like it's boring, dumb, or just not interesting. I think it's terribly interesting if you can get your head around how it relates to where you're standing right here and now.
Ani DiFranco
Before Katrina, you didn't see criticism of the Bush administration in the media. Here they are, stealing elections, enacting illegal wars, huge crimes against humanity and democracy, and you didn't even see criticism. It wasn't until Katrina that people started to come down on them.
Ani DiFranco
Why do you think I write these feminist songs, to try and teach myself to respect myself. You know, it's not because I'm a hero.
Ani DiFranco
