More quotes by Fiona Apple
No matter how well prepared you are in life, you're gonna fall down a hole, and if you can fix the frayed ends of things, then you're better off.
Fiona Apple
I didn't want to be precious about things. Of course, the idea is to make great music, but if you have great musicians up there, it gives me some leeway to play around a little bit.
Fiona Apple
In a sense it's a lot crazier when you're on the road and it's a lot less stable, but it's actually really healthy for me because it keeps me from isolating, which I tend to do a lot.
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
I caved in to what people wanted me to do. I thought that they weren't going to like me if I didn't.
Fiona Apple
I'm a tulip in a cup. I stand no chance of growing up
Fiona Apple
I’m amorous but out of reach / A still life drawing of a peach.
Fiona Apple
I think I'm better at live shows than I used to be because I'm way more comfortable with the uncomfortable pauses between songs.
Fiona Apple
I really don't think anything I do is a mistake. It could be if I didn't learn from it. But in the long run, no matter what I do for the rest of my life, I'll know I did something wonderful by saying what I felt. That's what I said at the awards there: Go with yourself. And that's what I did.
Fiona Apple
I realized I was trying to be friends with somebody who I used to be with but who I didn't get along with. I'm really big on that. I need to be friends with everyone that I've ever had a relationship with.
Fiona Apple
I don't know if anybody wants to mix their politics with their entertainment.
Fiona Apple
I wouldn't know what to do with another chance if you gave it to me.
Fiona Apple
If I respect myself and believe in what I'm doing, no one can touch me.
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
Hearing my songs in public freaks me out a bit. There was one restaurant I really liked in L.A., but I had to stop going there when they started playing my music. It felt kinda awkward.
Fiona Apple
My mind goes to tragedy first.
Fiona Apple
I've never been to the websites. It's a lot healthier for me to keep out of the conversations about me.
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
In a strange way, I'm way more comfortable onstage than anywhere else.
Fiona Apple
I think that, y'know, they seem to really love music, which means they'll stick with it. I think that Hanson could be really good in a few years, actually!
