More quotes by Fiona Apple

Fiona Apple
The truth is it's fun to be up there and know that you're in your underwear. Even though I know I'm exploiting my sexuality in a certain way, it's fun! It boosts my ego.
Fiona Apple
Be kind to me, or treat me mean I'll make the most of it, I'm an extraordinary machine
Fiona Apple
I like the idea of the idler wheel - it just sits in between things, but it makes such a big difference in the way that the machine is working. That concept has always been something that has interested me, but I didn't really know why.

Fiona Apple
I stand by everything I've ever said, apologies included.
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 just want to feel everything.
Fiona Apple
If you want to see me cry, just come to a photo shoot.
Fiona Apple
If women want to be appreciated for what we're saying, we've got to wear turtlenecks and long pants.
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
I’m amorous but out of reach / A still life drawing of a peach.
Fiona Apple
Just tolerate my little fist tugging on your forest chest
Fiona Apple
If I respect myself and believe in what I'm doing, no one can touch me.
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
