More quotes by Fiona Apple
I resent limitations. I'm going to be this way for a while, and then the funny side of me is going to come out. Slowly, people are going to realize they're seeing a completely honest evolution of human life.
Fiona Apple
If I have one success in my relationship history, it's with the people who listen to my music. I think that they'll be there with me forever, and I'll be there with them forever. And I'm totally satisfied with that.
Fiona Apple
If you want to see me cry, just come to a photo shoot.

You know, the age thing really bugs me. Do people have more of a right to not like what I say because I'm 19? I'm up here because of what I write. Obviously, I must know something, or I wouldn't have been nominated for Best New Artist. Sometimes it's like, You're right. My mother wrote these songs.
Fiona Apple
It's calm under the waves in the blue of my oblivion.
Fiona Apple
Nobody is strong enough to not be influenced.
Fiona Apple
If women want to be appreciated for what we're saying, we've got to wear turtlenecks and long pants.
Fiona Apple
The only reason that it takes me seven years to do stuff is because I just don't really have a plan.
Fiona Apple
How can I ask anyone to love me when all I do is beg to be left alone?
Fiona Apple
If I had a kid, and I had a choice between teaching somebody how to avoid trouble, or teaching them how to get out of it, I'd teach them how to get out of it.
Fiona Apple
Nothing that you do will ever feel good if you let people convince you that you have no choice.
Fiona Apple
As a person who performs on stage, it's good to be emotionally open. If you mess with someone when they are in that state, it's like you're messing with an animal when it's eating.
Fiona Apple
Everybody acts like I'm nuts. I'm not nuts I just want to feel it all.
Fiona Apple
I had really bad obsessive-compulsive disorder. At its worst, I was compelled to leave my house at three o'clock in the morning and go out in the alley because I just knew that the paper-towel roll I threw in the recycling bin was uncomfortable, like it was lying the wrong way, and I would be down in the garbage.
Fiona Apple
Sometimes interviews are fun and good conversations, but stuff like photo shoots and appearances at places where you have to meet a lot of people - I was never really made for this kind of stuff.
Fiona Apple
When you're surrounded by all these people, it can be even lonelier than when you're by yourself. You can be in a huge crowd, but if you don't feel like you can trust anybody or talk to anybody, you feel like you're really alone.
Fiona Apple
There were songs I would write about breaking up with somebody before I broke up with them, months and months before I broke up with them.
Fiona Apple
My problem was that I felt ashamed of feeling sad or angry. Now, I don't hide my vulnerability in my lyrics. There's no way I was going to get raped and not get something out of it. I learned about power and hope and forgiveness. I like who I am now and I wouldn't be who I am if that hadn't happened.
Fiona Apple
There aren't many poster children for cool angst. Everybody thinks it's cool if you're the bad girl.
Fiona Apple
My favorite thing is drums. I have a very, very big memory - and I don't have many big memories - of going to see the movie Tap, with Gregory Hines. During one scene, he's in jail, and there's some water dripping down, and he starts tap dancing. I just like that feeling of: I'm in charge, I can do whatever I want.
