I don't expect people to get me. That would be quite arrogant. I think there are a lot of people out there in the world that nobody gets.

More quotes by Bjork
I sometimes fall into the trap of doing what I think I should be doing rather than what I want to be doing.
Bjork
I never really understood the word ‘loneliness’. As far as I was concerned, I was in an orgy with the sky and the ocean, and with nature.
Bjork
Part of me is probably more conservative than people realise. I like my old string quartets, I don't like music that's trippy for trippy's sake.
Bjork
There's more to Life than this
Bjork
Football is a fertility festival. Eleven sperm trying to get into the egg. I feel sorry for the goalkeeper.
Bjork
I am a grateful grapefruit.
Bjork
As a singer-songwriter, what I do is write about how the human feels.
Bjork
I find it so amazing when people tell me that electronic music has no soul. You can't blame the computer. If there's no soul in the music, it's because nobody put it there.
Bjork
The reason I do photographs is to help people understand my music, so it's very important that I am the same, emotionally, in the photographs as in the music. Most people's eyes are much better developed than their ears. If they see a certain emotion in the photograph, then they'll understand the music.
Bjork
I love being a very personal singer-songwriter, but I also like being a scientist or explorer.
Bjork
I have always had a certain song in my head, a certain chemistry of sounds.
Bjork
Compared to America or Europe, God isn't a big part of our lives here. I don't know anyone here who goes to church when he's had a rough divorce or is going through depression. We go out into nature instead.
Bjork
It's nice and quiet but soon again starts another big riot!
Bjork
You want people to take risks, and OK, they fail, but you don't get the great stuff unless people are willing to risk and not play it safe. And maybe the Icelandic characteristic is better harnessed in these places than on the stock market.
Bjork
I want to support young girls who are in their 20s now and tell them: You're not just imagining things. It's tough. Everything that a guy says once, you have to say five times.
Bjork
Formats are just illusions, and it's about the relationship between the person that makes music and the person that listens to music. Every time there's a new format, the iron is hot, and you can mold it.
Bjork
If you can make nature and technology friends, then you can make everyone friends you can make everyone intact. That's what women do a lot - they're the glue between a lot of things.
Bjork
I feel the 21st century is another new age. Not only can we collaborate again with nature, but we have to. It's an emergency.
Bjork
I just feel like making things solar-powered and wind-powered should be as easy as using an iPad.
Bjork
I get highs, to be totally honest, in second-hand shops. My hunting instinct, I expect, really kicks in.
