Patriarchy is like the elephant in the room that we don't talk about, but how could it not affect the planet radically when it's the superstructure of human society?
Ani DiFranco
We get a little further from perfection each year. I think that's called character. I think that's just how it goes.

I love all those great 'f' words - feminism, folk music.

It can be very frustrating and very deflating to be constantly defined and described by other people, so I've stopped reading anything written about me, and I find it much healthier. I just sort of concentrate on what I do and don't worry too much about that.
Ani DiFranco
My songs are just little letters to me.

There's this brutal imperial power, that my passport says I represent. But it will never represent where my heart lives, only vaguely where it went.
Ani DiFranco
A lot of women these days, a lot of young women don't want to call themselves feminists. You have this cheap, hideous 'girl power' sort of fad, which I think is pretty benign at best, but at worst, I think it's a way of taking the politics out of feminism and making it some kind of fashion.
Ani DiFranco
Self-Preservation is a full-time occupation.
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 am getting nowhere with you and I can't let you go and I cant get through.
Ani DiFranco
When you sit right down in the middle of yourself you're gonna wanna have a comfortable chair.
Ani DiFranco
If more people were screamin', I could relax.
Ani DiFranco
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.
Ani DiFranco
Imagine you're a girl, just trying to finally come clean, knowing full well they'd prefer you were dirty and smiling.
Ani DiFranco
How come I can pick my ears, but not my nose? Who made up that rule anyway? How can you say that's the way it is, that's just the way it goes, why don't you decide fore yourself what you can do?
