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.

More quotes by Ani DiFranco
People used to make records, as in the record of an event, the event of people playing music in a room, and now everything's cross-marketing, its about sunglasses and shoes, or guns and drugs that you choose.
Ani DiFranco
I'm a little hibernating animal. Anonymity is one of my favorite things. I mean, that's why I moved to New York when I was like 18, because there, there are just so many people that there's no one and you're just lost. You're completely invisible and I find that very liberating.
Ani DiFranco
I don't need anyone to hold me, I can hold my own.
Ani DiFranco
Privilege is a headache, that you don't know that you don't have.

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

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

Ani DiFranco
Life is a sleazy stranger, who looks vaguely familiar flirting with a bimbo named disaster at the end of the bar.
Ani DiFranco
There's a certain window of time in the middle of the night out in Middle America where there's no bar open and nothing on TV. If you don't want to do too many drugs, you have to start bodily mutilation.
Ani DiFranco
If you don't live what you sing about, your mirror is gonna fade.
Ani DiFranco
Emptiness has its solace in that there's nothing left to take.
Ani DiFranco
I cannot name this, I cannot explain this, and I really don't want to so just call me shameless.
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
These days, my main guitar amps have been Magnatone. They're beautiful. Magnatones have actual tremolo, which I recently learned about guitar amps. Often what guitar amps call vibrato is really just a volume Up and Down. But Magnatone has a true vibrato, which is pitch bending. And so, it's just a lush sound.
Ani DiFranco
I turned my pain into art and my hard work into a career. Helping myself has helped others. helping others has helped me.
Ani DiFranco
I would like to perfect the art of being studiously aloof
