More quotes by Juliana Hatfield
I was just dying to get out of my twenties.
Juliana Hatfield
If life is a performance, and I am not an actor, am I supposed to lie down and die?
Juliana Hatfield
I could make a whole album with no one else involved at all. It would be a total, unadulterated expression of myself. Because whenever you have others playing on a project, their influence becomes a part of it.
Juliana Hatfield
David Ortiz is a genius. He's incredible to watch. Over and over, he hits home runs that are simply transcendent.

Juliana Hatfield
In this world, where everything happens so fast, it's hard to sit back, take the time and contemplate.
Juliana Hatfield
I'm really conflicted about my role as a front-person. I hate the attention.
Juliana Hatfield
I like people wanting to know about me.
Juliana Hatfield
I wanted to be a writer. I still want to be a prose writer. I feel I am more temperamentally suited to that kind of life, although there are things I still want to do with music.
Juliana Hatfield
I've always been in this sort of perpetual state of existential longing. I feel like something's missing.
Juliana Hatfield
I have many moods, and there is no objective reality. And I kind of live by that.
Juliana Hatfield
I am not dead inside. I still care about right and wrong.
Juliana Hatfield
