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
How can I ask anyone to love me when all I do is beg to be left alone?
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
I was screaming into the canyon at the moment of my death the echo I created outlasted my last breath.
Fiona Apple
I stand by everything I've ever said, apologies included.
Fiona Apple
I have never bought myself a computer or a phone, but guys in my life have bought them for me, for whatever reason. So now I have them.
