But in the garden of simple, where all of us are nameless, you were never anything but beautiful to me.
Ani DiFranco
Image
Some people's minds we're not going to change. But if we can't, we need to bring more positive voices into the discussion.
Ani DiFranco
Image
When I look down, I miss all the good stuff And when I look up, I just trip over things.
Ani DiFranco
Image
I hate it when people don't recognize the work of women as being universal, or having any import to the world at large, as opposed to men's work, which is generally tends to be seen as more universal - men's writing about their own experience tends to be put in a broader context.

Too much is how I love you, but too well is how I know you.
Ani DiFranco

I'd rather suffer the consequences of truth than of silence.

now the profile of our country looks a little less hard nosed / but that picket line persisted and that clinic's since been closed / they keep pounding their fists on reality hoping it will break / but I don't think there's a one of us leads a life free of mistakes

What bugs me is that you believe what you're saying. What bothers me is that you don't know how you feel. What scares me is that while you're telling me stories, you actually believe that they are real.

I am a work in progress dressed in the fabric of a world unfolding.
Ani DiFranco
Image
When I look around I think this, this is good enough And I laugh at whatever life brings because when I look down, I just miss all the good stuff and when I look up, I just trip over things.
Ani DiFranco
Image
Maybe you can keep me from never being happy, but you're not going to stop me from HAVING FUN!

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.'

Taken out of context I must seem so strange.

What we all have to admit to is that one man cannot save us. Unless we start energizing ourselves, all standing behind him with all of the force of our collective power then we can't expect mountains to be moved. And that is not exactly happening, we are a very comfortable population.

We have a complete void of progressive politics in this country right now. The will of the people goes ignored and unrealized. I'm searching for the people that can enter the political system, a strong third party. We need to consolidate.

Don't treat me like I am something that happened to you.

and god help you if you are an ugly girl course too pretty is also your doom cause everyone harbors a secret hatred for the prettiest girl in the room and god help you if you are a pheonix and you dare to rise up from the ash a thousand eyes will smolder with jealousy while you are just flying back
