More quotes by Emily Haines

Emily Haines
I like the idea of interviews where you just talk about stuff instead of where it's my chance to talk to my public through something else.

Emily Haines

Emily Haines
I'm a chick for sure.
Emily Haines
Oftentimes the most produced and synth-tastic songs are the ones that end up sounding the best acoustic.
Emily Haines
I think more like Charlie Chaplin than like Jennifer Anniston.
Emily Haines
I see how 14-year old girls react to me and I think I'm a good role model. Rockstar maybe not, but I'm willing to play with it for a little while, until my hair gets gray.
Emily Haines
Of course there are influences, of course there are things that are inspiring, but it's weird to think that I'm trying to keep a mental inventory of them and report them clearly to whomever might ask.
