More quotes by Ani DiFranco
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.
Ani DiFranco
My songs are just little letters to me.
Ani DiFranco
Promiscuity does not scare me as long as she is savvy and self possessed when puberty comes to call. My aim is to simply raise my daughter to be secure in her self worth and capable of happiness all on her own.
Ani DiFranco
Smile pretty and watch your back
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
I will not be afraid to let my talent shine.
Ani DiFranco
Art is why I get up in the morning, but my definition ends there.
Ani DiFranco
I was supposed to be cool about this, yeah, I remember - cool was the plan. Tried to keep it all under wraps, but the wraps kept going slack. I keep turning round, I keep coming back.
Ani DiFranco
I don't hate being compared with female musicians. I don't mind that at all. I have no problem with seeing connections between women's work.

These days, my main guitar amps have been Magnatone. They're beautiful. Magnatones have actual tremolo, which I recently learned about guitar amps. Often what guitar amps call vibrato is really just a volume Up and Down. But Magnatone has a true vibrato, which is pitch bending. And so, it's just a lush sound.
Ani DiFranco
If I'm gonna go down I'm gonna do it with style. You won't hear me surrender, you won't hear me confess cause you've left me with nothing but I have worked with less.
Ani DiFranco
We get a little further from perfection, each year on the road, I guess that's what they call character, I guess that's just the way it goes, better to be dusty than polished, like some store window mannequin, why don't you touch me where i'm rusty, let me stain your hands
Ani DiFranco
There isn't much I have to say, that I wouldn't rather just shut up and do.
Ani DiFranco
Words are hotter than flames. Words are wetter than water.
Ani DiFranco
I seriously hate pop music and all things super-commercial, so I'd be hard pressed to feel embarrassed by anything I listen to. Besides, I have a three-year-old, so I don't have time for guilty pleasures anyway!
Ani DiFranco
I'm sounding out the silence, avoiding all the words.
Ani DiFranco
I am still praying for revolution.
Ani DiFranco
I knew naturally as a child not to forfeit my creativity to a world that's all laid out for me. I'll look at everything around me and vow to keep in mind that alla this is just someone's idea. It could have just as well been mine.
Ani DiFranco
What doesn't bend, breaks.

I just don't know any other word than feminist that describes a person who believes women are people.
