Rape is the most humiliating thing that can be done to you it's the most vulnerable that you can be. But once I realized that, I became a stronger person and faced all my fears.

More quotes by Fiona Apple
I've been a bad, bad girl - I've been careless with a delicate man.
Fiona Apple
I've done things that can be made fun of. It's not such a bad thing. If I'm going to end up a role model, then I'd rather not end up being the kind of role model that pretends to be perfect, and pretends that she always has the right thing to say. I'm a product of role models that didn't make me feel like I was as good as them.
Fiona Apple
The worst pain in the world is shame.
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
It's true/ I do imbue my blue unto myself/ I make it bitter.
Fiona Apple
The age thing really bugs me. Do people have more of a right to not like what I say because I'm 19?
Fiona Apple
Love is love, and there will never be too much.
Fiona Apple
If women want to be appreciated for what we're saying, we've got to wear turtlenecks and long pants.
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
Five years from now I'm probably going to look back on the things I'm doing and cringe.
Fiona Apple
I'm here because of what I write. Obviously, I must know something
Fiona Apple
I took off my glasses while you were yelling at me once more than once so as not to see you see me react. Should've put 'em, should've put 'em on again so I could see you see me sincerely yelling back.
Fiona Apple
I can bake. I made myself some nice French fries once. But otherwise I just eat out. Lots of salad bars.
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
I let the beast in too soon I don't know how to live without his hand on my throat. I fight him always and still. Oh, darling it's so sweet. You think you know how crazy, how crazy I am.
Fiona Apple
I know what my job is: I write the songs, I sing them, I play them on the piano
Fiona Apple
You fondle my trigger, then you blame my gun
Fiona Apple
My career has been: first you have to prove yourself, then there's the sophomore record, then there's this thing and that thing, and you always want to be understood.
Fiona Apple
My whole life, people have been saying, Why are you so angry?
Fiona Apple
I don't care what people do. I don't care how people remember my albums. I do them for my own reasons.
Fiona Apple
