One of my friends said to me, Oh yeah, of course you aren't writing. So I was like, The next time you see me, I'm gonna have a new song.

Fiona Apple

Fiona Apple
This world is bullshit. And you shouldn't model your life — wait a second — you shouldn't model your life about what you think that we think is cool and what we're wearing and what we're saying and everything. Go with yourself. Go with yourself.
Fiona Apple
