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.

Fiona Apple
The quick success was a bit strange to get used to.
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
If I respect myself and believe in what I'm doing, no one can touch me.
Fiona Apple
My mind goes to tragedy first.

Everybody acts like I'm nuts. I'm not nuts I just want to feel it all.

Be kind to me, or treat me mean I'll make the most of it, I'm an extraordinary machine
