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 got drunk when I was five. Everybody gets drunk before they're 21.

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

How can I ask anyone to love me when all I do is beg to be left alone?

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
Image
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.
Fiona Apple
Image
I would never kill myself, but you can kind of let yourself die.
Fiona Apple
Image
I've never been to the websites. It's a lot healthier for me to keep out of the conversations about me.
Fiona Apple
Image
Everybody sees me as this sullen and insecure little thing. Those are just the sides of me that I feel it's necessary to show because no one else seems to be showing them.
Fiona Apple
Image
You fondle my trigger, then you blame my gun
Fiona Apple
Image
I stand by everything I've ever said, apologies included.
Fiona Apple
Image
I caved in to what people wanted me to do. I thought that they weren't going to like me if I didn't.

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.
