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.

More quotes by Ani DiFranco
All the decent people, male and female, are feminists. The only people who are not feminists are those who believe that women are inherently inferior or undeserving of the respect and opportunity afforded men. Either you are a feminist or you are a misogynist. There is no box marked other.
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
Lying in bed, you know, you don't seem so tall.
Ani DiFranco
There is no alternative. A Democrat is a Republican is a big businessman, and we're all consumers instead of citizens. It just manifests in the culture, in the music, in the art. I feel a little panicky about it.
Ani DiFranco
I am a thinned-skinned type. I am very sensitive, very emotional. Vulnerability is kind of always a part of my day.
Ani DiFranco
I think it is very useful to know ourselves, but when we start naming and labeling, that is dangerous, that gets problematic. It negates that things are always changing. Besides, it's hard to pin a label onto something that's always moving.
Ani DiFranco
It don't take a weather man to look around and see the weather, Jeb said he'd deliver Florida folks and boy did he ever, and we hold these truths to be self evident number one George W Bush is not president. Number two America isn't a true democracy. And number three the media is not fooling me.
Ani DiFranco
Pop stardom is not very compelling. I'm much more interested in a relationship between performer and audience that is of equals. I came up through folk music, and there's no pomp and circumstance to the performance. There's no, like, 'I'll be the rock star, you be the adulating fan.'
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
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.
Ani DiFranco
I am getting nowhere with you and I can't let you go and I cant get through.
Ani DiFranco
Patriarchy is a fundamental imbalance underlying society And it's one we rarely address because it's so universal. But as I get older, I see that peace is a product of balance.
Ani DiFranco
I know my mind is made of matter but I need to know exactly what is the matter at it's core? Because my heart is just a muscle and simply put, it's sore.
Ani DiFranco
God help you if you are a phoenix and you dare to rise up from the ash a thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy while you are just flying past

One of my rules is: Never TRY to do anything. Just do it.
Ani DiFranco
The minute my child was born, I was reborn as a feminist. It's so incredible what women can do... birthing naturally, as most women do around the globe, is a superhuman act. You leave behind the comforts of being human and plunge back into being an animal.
Ani DiFranco
I don't need anyone to hold me, I can hold my own.
Ani DiFranco
The windows of my soul are made of one-way glass, don't bother looking into my eyes if there's something you want to know, just ask
Ani DiFranco
I'm an atheist how unfortunate it is to assign responsibility to the higher up for justice amongst people.

We need a radically truthful way to acknowledge reproductive freedom.
