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 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
The reason I do interviews is because I'm protecting my songs.
Bjork
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.
Bjork
I have always had a certain song in my head, a certain chemistry of sounds.
Bjork
I think choosing between men and women is like choosing between cake and ice cream. You'd be daft not to try both when there are so many different flavors.
Bjork
Singing is like a celebration of oxygen.
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
It's incredible how nature sets females up to take care of people, and yet it is tricky for them to take care of themselves.
Bjork
I love being a very personal singer-songwriter, but I also like being a scientist or explorer.
Bjork
I'd done three solo albums in a row, and that's quite narcissistic.
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.

There's more to Life than this

I have nothing against Kanye West. Help me with this - I'm not dissing him - this is about how people talk about him. With the last album he did, he got all the best beatmakers on the planet at the time to make beats for him. A lot of the time, he wasn't even there. Yet no one would question his authorship for a second.
Bjork
It's funny how the hippies and the punks tried to get rid of the conservatives, but they always seem to get the upper hand in the end.
Bjork
I think after Iceland's independence in 1944, we were not very sure of ourselves and our confidence was really low. It took one generation to sort of get over that. I'm second generation. My parents were born in 1945-46. Our movement at the punk times was like, we can sing in Icelandic, we are strong.
Bjork
I learned what a lot of women have to do is make the guys in the room think it was their idea, and then you back them up.
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.
Bjork
I have to re-create the universe every morning when I wake up, and kill it in the evening.
Bjork
Solar power, wind power, the way forward is to collaborate with nature - it's the only way we are going to get to the other end of the 21st century.
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
