What probably confuses people is they know a lot about me, but it quite pleases me that there's more they don't know.

More quotes by Bjork
I guess I'm quite used to not being understood rather than being understood.
Bjork
I don't like records that are the same from beginning to end, that are too styled and slick. Everything is so designed and airbrushed and Botoxed, it makes us think, 'Oh, everybody's perfect except me. Everything's smooth except me.' But nothing is smooth.
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 just feel like making things solar-powered and wind-powered should be as easy as using an iPad.
Bjork
I'm not going to talk like I know about politics, because I'm a total amateur, but maybe I can be a spokesperson for people who aren't normally interested in politics.
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
When I was 18, science, physics, and math were my favorite. I was a bit of a nerd - the only girl with a lot of boys at chess championships.
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
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
If nothing else, I have money.
Bjork
I never want to know the range of my voice. It has to be impulsive, and I don't want to kill the mystery.
Bjork
I love hiking in Iceland most, there are lots of brilliant paths.
Bjork
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
Bjork
Believe it or not, I'm a bit clumsy with technology. It's probably why I'm so excited about the touchscreen - even an idiot can use it!
Bjork
Sometimes, when I have a lot of ideas and I want to do a lot of things, or when I'm traveling, I lose energy and I can't do as many things as I want. So I have to plan days when I'm not doing anything. I find that a bit boring, but it's necessary.
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
I was very aware when I went to the Academy Awards that it would probably be my first and last time. So I thought my input should really be about fertility, and I thought I'd bring some eggs.
Bjork
People that complete other people's vision are understated.
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
I love England. It's no coincidence it's the first place I moved to for a more cosmopolitan life, which is the only thing Iceland lacks.
Bjork
