More quotes by Fiona Apple
I have never been So insulted in all my life I could swallow the seas To wash down all this pride First you run like a fool Just to be at my side And now you run like a fool But you just run to hide.
Fiona Apple
One of my friends said to me, Oh yeah, of course you aren't writing. So I was like, The next time you see me, I'm gonna have a new song. I wrote Criminal in 45 minutes when everyone else went to lunch because I had to have a hit. I can force myself to do the work, but only if someone is right up behind me.

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.

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.
Fiona Apple
Even though I found you on an ordinary day, it felt like I found a precious pearl in an oyster when I deep dived into the sea. Baby, you are really that precious to me.
Fiona Apple
I would never kill myself, but you can kind of let yourself die.
Fiona Apple
What will an angel say that the devil wants to know?
Fiona Apple
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.
Fiona Apple
My whole life, people have been saying, Why are you so angry?
Fiona Apple
My mind goes to tragedy first.
Fiona Apple
I realized I was trying to be friends with somebody who I used to be with but who I didn't get along with. I'm really big on that. I need to be friends with everyone that I've ever had a relationship with.
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
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
I dare anybody to look at me and say I'm anorexic. I'm so totally not.
Fiona Apple
I never thought I'd be in a position where people would be talking about my sexuality and saying how good I look in underwear.
Fiona Apple
Everybody acts like I'm nuts. I'm not nuts I just want to feel it all.
