I know what my job is: I write the songs, I sing them, I play them on the piano
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.

I think I'm better at live shows than I used to be because I'm way more comfortable with the uncomfortable pauses between songs.

I had really bad obsessive-compulsive disorder. At its worst, I was compelled to leave my house at three o'clock in the morning and go out in the alley because I just knew that the paper-towel roll I threw in the recycling bin was uncomfortable, like it was lying the wrong way, and I would be down in the garbage.

There were songs I would write about breaking up with somebody before I broke up with them, months and months before I broke up with them.

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.

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.

I got drunk when I was five. Everybody gets drunk before they're 21.
Fiona Apple
Image
My whole life, people have been saying, Why are you so angry?
Fiona Apple
Image
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
Image
I read on the Internet that I was dead.
Fiona Apple
Image
No, I don't believe in the wasting of time, But I don't believe that I'm wasting mine
Fiona Apple
Image
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
Image
Everybody acts like I'm nuts. I'm not nuts I just want to feel it all.
Fiona Apple
Image
Put a little love here in my void.

The quick success was a bit strange to get used to.

I think that, y'know, they seem to really love music, which means they'll stick with it. I think that Hanson could be really good in a few years, actually!

It's calm under the waves in the blue of my oblivion.

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.
