I think my biggest fear is dying. Although sometimes my biggest fear is not dying. But yeah, I think health stuff for me is more what I'm afraid of.

I made the decision that my contribution needed to be more musical than political. My music was enough, politically. Art matters. Art was enough. My music was enough to say what I had to say.

As I've gotten older, I've realized that things are a lot more permeable. It's not so black and white: not every journalist is a jerk.

I've always been like, Look, you're going to die and it's not going to matter after you die that you got out onstage and bombed.

I'm not going to sit around and be peace and love with somebody's boot on my neck.

I think as a culture, we don't like conflict or looking at icky stuff - especially in our downtime.

The exciting thing about getting a label together and doing press for it is that hopefully some 15-year-old girl who is the only feminist in her junior-high class will hear about it and be like, Oh, cool, I hadn't heard of that, I'm going to check it out.

It's unexpected for women's issues to be brought up in places other than women's centers on college campuses or crisis places.

I felt like going out on the road and mixing it with music - which is something young people are always really interested in - would be a good way to proselytize. It was like feminist evangelism.

Don't get down on yourself that you can't run a 4K or dance all night long at a fun club. Give yourself a break.

We support Hillary [Clinton]. We're saying that strongly. I'm with her, I don't think that we can be any less strident. She's the best person for the job.

I'm sure if you see things you wrote when you were 19, you cringe. I saw stuff like angry poetry that I wrote when I was mad at my father, or photos I took where I smeared period blood on myself. It's embarrassing.

I'm in a really lucky position where people will be interested in whatever I do, but what I do is sing.
Kathleen Hanna
Image
I think that the Internet is really cool because a lot of young feminists don't feel like they have to reinvent the wheel.
Kathleen Hanna
Image
It's the idea that we as people can control our own destinies. The government and the corporations, more even than the government, can't dictate what artwork we're supposed to like or what comedy we're supposed to laugh at.

I felt it was really, really important, not just in the vein of feminist erasure or whatever but also just as an artist that I honored my work.

I don't like every other musician's work. The same way that filmmakers don't like every other filmmakers' work. Just because I'm a feminist doesn't mean I'm gonna say that I like every other woman's work, or that I appreciate another statement that another woman publicly made.

If you really hate me, you should at least have the courtesy to take out a piece of paper and write it down and mail it to me. If you're a worthy nemesis, I want to see your handwriting. I want to see your name and your address, and if you don't have the guts to give me those, then you're not a worthy nemesis.

Part of being in a band, being a painter, or starting a nonprofit is that you're going to make horrible mistakes and look like a total idiot, but you're never going to create that thing that really connects with people if you don't fail over and over and over again.

I don't need to convince men that feminism is important, that just isn't a goal of mine. I can't even have that conversation of whether or not it's important, because if someone asks me that... I don't want to have a conversation with them until they grow up.

You have these Stepford wives who are negating other women. But that's their job. [Donald] Trump is the one who is to blame, no matter how much I enjoy watching his surrogates fail massively.
