Ani DiFranco
I always feel I have to take a stand, And there's always someone on hand To hate me for standing there. I always feel I have to open my mouth, And every time I do, I offend someone, somewhere.
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?
Ani DiFranco
I envy your ignorance, I hear that it's bliss.
Ani DiFranco
Emptiness has its solace in that there's nothing left to take.
Ani DiFranco
Love was always the goal, and my point every step of the way was that nothing is wrong with love, no matter what flavor it comes in.
