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.

More quotes by Bjork
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!'
Bjork
I'd done three solo albums in a row, and that's quite narcissistic.
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.
Bjork
If nothing else, I have money.
Bjork
I love being a very personal singer-songwriter, but I also like being a scientist or explorer.
Bjork
As a singer-songwriter, what I do is write about how the human feels.
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 just feel like making things solar-powered and wind-powered should be as easy as using an iPad.
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
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
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
It takes a long time to fully become who you are.
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
Seventy per cent humidity is ideal for vocal cords.
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
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
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
Icelandic peoples were the ones who memorized sagas... We were the first rappers of Europe.
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
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.
