More quotes by Bjork
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.

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
I am a grateful grapefruit.
Bjork
Singing is like a celebration of oxygen.
Bjork
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.
Bjork
Usually when you see females in movies, they feel like they have these metallic structures around them, they are caged in by male energy.
Bjork
I guess I'm quite used to not being understood rather than being understood.
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.

National Geographic contacted me about getting on their label, and I was like, 'Wow, I want to be label mates with the sharks and lemurs!'

I love hiking in Iceland most, there are lots of brilliant paths.
Bjork
The English can be a very critical, unforgiving people, but criticism can be good. And this is a country that loves comedy.
Bjork
When I was a teenager in Iceland people would throw rocks and shout abuse at me because they thought I was weird. I never got that in London no matter what I wore.
Bjork
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?
Bjork
I get highs, to be totally honest, in second-hand shops. My hunting instinct, I expect, really kicks in.
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 relationship changes as you learn more about people, and the work sort of takes on its own life. I enjoy this very much.
Bjork
People are always going to need physicality they're going to want to meet other people even more. I've got faith in the physical angle. People have their needs. They won't forget about them.
Bjork
Seventy per cent humidity is ideal for vocal cords.
Bjork
Sometimes when I write lyrics there are images in them, usually on a quite simplistic level, like colors. But most often music comes first and then later I sit down with visual people and we chat about what we want to do. I don't look at myself as a visual artist. I make music.
Bjork
When I was 20, political music was the uncoolest thing on earth. But when Bush got elected, that was the first time I started actually reading the news.
