Birth is the epicenter of women's power
Ani DiFranco
We negotiate with chaos for some sense of satisfaction.
Ani DiFranco
I like to be an inspiration and an example of the idea that you can be independent, and it's no problem, and you can pay your rent, and it's empowering, and it's great. And that's true, but it also takes a really long time, and you have to have a lot of patience and a lot of conviction in why you want to remain independent.

If you turn on the TV, you're going to get a certain palate, and if you go looking underneath the surface, there's a whole lot of stuff there that I think a lot of our generation would be really interested in.
Ani DiFranco
One thing I do find in the lost generation or something is a kind of abhorrence of history, you know, like it's boring, dumb, or just not interesting. I think it's terribly interesting if you can get your head around how it relates to where you're standing right here and now.
Ani DiFranco
There's this brutal imperial power, that my passport says I represent. But it will never represent where my heart lives, only vaguely where it went.
Ani DiFranco
I've been waiting for sleep to offer up the day with both hands.
Ani DiFranco
I'm pretty much a workaholic, but when you're doing what you love it's hard to think of a reason to stop.
Ani DiFranco
Privilege is a headache, that you don't know that you don't have.
Ani DiFranco
Too much is how I love you, but too well is how I know you.
Ani DiFranco
I can't wait to get back to New York City where at least when I walk down the streat, no one ever hesitates to tell me exactly what they think of me.
Ani DiFranco
I have earned my disillusionment.
Ani DiFranco
We barely have time to react in this world, let alone rehearse.
