More quotes by Ani DiFranco
I was blessed with a birth and a death, and I guess I just want some say in between.
Ani DiFranco
My political mission is as acute as ever. For me, in addition to kind of looking at the world and trying to engage in my society politically, having the kid around sort of makes me check in with myself. I think you're all busy trying to fix the world, but what about yourself?
Ani DiFranco
Somedays the line I walk turns out to be straight - Other days the line tends to deviate.
Ani DiFranco
Feminism is not only for women It's something everyone can participate in, and evolve together, as the first step in the right direction. I see feminism as a tool to achieve that balance and peace.
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
Let's grow old and die together. Let's do it now.
Ani DiFranco
Maybe we are both good people who've done some bad things.
Ani DiFranco
It's not important to be defined, it's only important to use your time well.
Ani DiFranco
I walk like I'm on a mission 'cause that's the way I groove. I got more and more to do and less and less to prove.
Ani DiFranco
It's the ground that we walk on, it's where we sit, it's the language that we use. It's a difficult undertaking, but I think without healing that and creating more of a balance between the sexes, we will never have balance globally. I feel like I am going deeper and deeper into this space where I came from that I barely understood.
Ani DiFranco
They say that the truth will set you free But then again, so will a lie... It depends if you're trying to get to the promised land Or if you're just trying to get by.
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
and I try to draw the line but it ends up running down the middle of me most of the time.
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
Having more exposure is kind of a bittersweet thing for me, honestly, because it's nice to have a little more job security in life now.
Ani DiFranco
If a politician is running in your local community who's pro-choice, who's feminist in their thinking, get behind them. Send them some money! If you have no money but have time, lick stamps!
Ani DiFranco
We barely have time to react in this world, let alone rehearse.
Ani DiFranco
You broke me bodily. The heart ain't the half of it, And I'll never learn to laugh at it In my good natured way. In fact, I'm laughing less in general, But I learned a lot at my own funeral. And I knew you'd be the death of me, So I guess that's the price I pay.
Ani DiFranco
If you don't live what you sing about, your mirror is gonna fade.
Ani DiFranco
Second Wave feminism started with consciousness-raising groups, which sounds big but it's really just house parties. Women getting together and saying, You feel this way?! Me too! Hanging out is consciousness-raising.
