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.

You know, the age thing really bugs me. Do people have more of a right to not like what I say because I'm 19? I'm up here because of what I write. Obviously, I must know something, or I wouldn't have been nominated for Best New Artist. Sometimes it's like, You're right. My mother wrote these songs.

My favorite thing is drums. I have a very, very big memory - and I don't have many big memories - of going to see the movie Tap, with Gregory Hines. During one scene, he's in jail, and there's some water dripping down, and he starts tap dancing. I just like that feeling of: I'm in charge, I can do whatever I want.

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 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
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
I know what my job is: I write the songs, I sing them, I play them on the piano
Fiona Apple
In a strange way, I'm way more comfortable onstage than anywhere else.
Fiona Apple
It's calm under the waves in the blue of my oblivion.
Fiona Apple
I'm here because of what I write. Obviously, I must know something

Fiona Apple
I just want to feel everything.
