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.

If I had a philosophy, it's that I support the beautiful side of anarchy.

I love hiking in Iceland most, there are lots of brilliant paths.
Bjork
The relationship changes as you learn more about people, and the work sort of takes on its own life. I enjoy this very much.

It seems that most the world is driven by the eye, right? They design cities to look great but they always sound horrible ... They design telephones to look great, but they sound horrible. I think it was about time that the other senses were celebrated.

Football is a fertility festival. Eleven sperm trying to get into the egg. I feel sorry for the goalkeeper.

People are always asking me about eskimos, but there are no eskimos in Iceland.

I've never done an album like this. With Biophilia, I was being like Kofi Annan - I had to be the pacifist to try to unite the impossible. Maybe that was a strange, personal job between me and myself, to show how overreaching I was being as a woman. The only way I could express that was by comparing it to the universe.

Iceland sets a world-record. The United Nations asked people from all over the world a series of questions. Iceland stuck out on one thing. When we were asked what do we believe, 90% said, 'ourselves'. I think I'm in that group. If I get into trouble, there's no God or Allah to sort me out. I have to do it myself.

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.

I guess I'm quite used to not being understood rather than being understood.
Bjork
In school, I guess I was a difficult, know-it-all type of student... I was always complaining that music education was too academic.
Bjork
I have always had a certain song in my head, a certain chemistry of sounds.

When I met Apple, I made it very clear that I am an old punk and I have never done commercials or been sponsored. And I wasn't after their money.
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 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
How could I be so immature to think you could replace the missing elements in me. How extremely lazy of me.
Bjork
I'm self-sufficient. I spend a lot of time on my own and I shut off quite easily. When I communicate, I communicate 900 per cent, then I shut off, which scares people sometimes.

There have been so many articles written in the papers that want to just eliminate the environmental values business and just build aluminum factories now. But there have been an equal amount of articles of people saying listen, you just went on a money binge, are you gonna go on another binge now?

I'm a fountain of blood in the shape of a girl . . . leave me now return tonight tide will show you the way if you forget my name you will go astray like a killer whale trapped in a bay

I'd done three solo albums in a row, and that's quite narcissistic.
