More quotes by Fiona Apple
I would never kill myself, but you can kind of let yourself die.
Fiona Apple
I'm a tulip in a cup. I stand no chance of growing up
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
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 want to be able to do whatever I feel like doing and not worry about anything. Even when I was a kid, the only contemporary artist I listened to was Cyndi Lauper.
Fiona Apple
I know what my job is: I write the songs, I sing them, I play them on the piano
Fiona Apple
How can I ask anyone to love me when all I do is beg to be left alone?
Fiona Apple
And if I'm being honest, I don't think I have an ex-boyfriend who would have something mean to say about me.
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
If I respect myself and believe in what I'm doing, no one can touch me.
Fiona Apple
Nobody is strong enough to not be influenced.
Fiona Apple
My heart went cold and only hollow rhythms resounded from within, but then he rose, brilliant as the moon in full and sank in the burrows of my keep, and all my armor, falling down, in a pile at my feet.
Fiona Apple
My mind goes to tragedy first.
Fiona Apple
I got drunk when I was five. Everybody gets drunk before they're 21.
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.
Fiona Apple
I was never somebody who grew up going, 'I really want to be a singer in a band,' and I never had any ambition toward anything, really.
Fiona Apple
I'm here because of what I write. Obviously, I must know something
Fiona Apple
I don't mind making a fool of myself. I felt like people would be accepting of that because, to me, that seems like an interesting way to do a show. I've always thought that it's interesting to watch people work things out on stage.
Fiona Apple
It's true/ I do imbue my blue unto myself/ I make it bitter.
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.
