More quotes by Ani DiFranco
A good brain ain't diddley, if you don't have the facts.
Ani DiFranco
All of youth culture is packaged and sold back to us at this furious rate these days. I think it's part and parcel to this corporate encroachment on our lives in general.
Ani DiFranco
When everything else seems unclear, at least I'll know I do it for the joy it brings.
Ani DiFranco
Subtract out the impact and the fall is all you get. So here's two beers to remember why and three more to forget.
Ani DiFranco
Mostly, I stay out of social media conversations. But sometimes, they hunt me down and shoot at me anyway!
Ani DiFranco
[The 'corporate takeover of people's lives'] also accounts for a lot of homogenization of culture. There are fast food restaurants everywhere. Every place tastes the same.
Ani DiFranco
If more people were screamin', I could relax.
Ani DiFranco
The world owes us nothing we owe each other the world.
Ani DiFranco
When I need to wipe my face, I use the back of my hand, And I like to take up space just because I can, And I use my dress to wipe up my drink. I care less and less what people think.
Ani DiFranco
What I like about being independent [in the music industry] is that anybody who does play the album on the radio and anybody who does choose to write in the media does so because they want to, because they like it or because they find something interesting there, not because they have to.
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
A little bird told me that jumping is easy and the falling is fun, right up until you hit sidewalk shivering and stunned.
Ani DiFranco
For me, the stronger ground I have in my personal life, then the more will I have to fight the good fight.
Ani DiFranco
I think the gay community should get smart and drop the word marriage. Do you really need to change every right-wing Christian to make sure you get your equal rights? Eyes on the prize, we should be sticking to getting equal rights.
Ani DiFranco
Being a parent has taught me a lot of things already, you know, though it's only been a year and half, and has made me address parts of myself that I would otherwise live in comfortable denial of, or you know and - you know, for instance, my self-loathing.
Ani DiFranco
I was blessed with a birth and a death, and I guess I just want some say in between.
Ani DiFranco
Maybe you don't like your job, maybe you didn't get enough sleep, well nobody likes their job, nobody got enough sleep. Maybe you just had the worst day of your life, but you know, there's no escape, there's no excuse, so just suck up and be nice.
Ani DiFranco
I still define myself by the places that I've been.
Ani DiFranco
Sometimes the beauty is easy. Sometimes you don't have to try at all. Sometimes you can hear the wind blow in a handshake. Sometimes there's poetry written right on the bathroom wall.
Ani DiFranco
I'm searching, as we all are, for ways to feel good about myself. Certainly, looking in the mirror doesn't do it!
Ani DiFranco
