A lot of artists are just really stupid about money, and it's really hard to find somebody who kind of thinks of shuffling money around and doing business as an art.

More quotes by Kathleen Hanna
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.
Kathleen Hanna
I feel so lucky that I met the love of my life. You know somebody's in it to win it when...you're having a seizure and they're holding you.
Kathleen Hanna
Whatever your personality was before, an illness makes it that plus a thousand. I'm a very binary person in a bad way where it's like everything is either totally great or totally awful. I don't understand grey area that well, and I've been working at that.
Kathleen Hanna
The more people, as you know, are able to be on whatever spectrum of femininity and masculinity they are on at that moment, that opens the door for women to not have to be the opposite of what the supposed traditional male is.
Kathleen Hanna
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.
Kathleen Hanna
I know that's really horrible, but that's how I do it in my head. I'm going to die. It doesn't matter. I don't matter. I'm a grain of sand. As a grain of sand, I may as well go out and relate to people and enjoy my short time on this planet that I have. Who knows what's coming next?
Kathleen Hanna
I really like to talk about my work in a way that is complicated.
Kathleen Hanna
It's unexpected for women's issues to be brought up in places other than women's centers on college campuses or crisis places.
Kathleen Hanna
Every band I've been in, it's just become my total life. I feel like a child star - I've missed out on so much.
Kathleen Hanna
I don't think I've ever had a woman yell that at me, but women have yelled mean things at me as well.
Kathleen Hanna
There are people who view their feminism in different ways. I used to beat myself up if I didn't react to things like I was supposed to.
Kathleen Hanna
There's comedians who I consider extremely punk rock who I've seen do very political stand up in places where nobody wants to hear that. It's uncomfortable and scary and you realize it's the punkest performance you've ever witnessed.
Kathleen Hanna
Taking care of yourself is the most important thing.
Kathleen Hanna
I'm living in a world where there are LGBTQ straight alliances at high schools. I feel pretty psyched on that.
Kathleen Hanna
I'm totally into Taylor Swift. I think she has super-clever lyrics, and I love that she writes her own music. Some of the themes she writes about are stuff I wish was there for me when I was in high school, and I'm so happy she really cares about her female fans. She's not catering to a male audience and is writing music for other girls.

I'm a very binary person in a bad way where it's like everything is either totally great or totally awful.
Kathleen Hanna
What I've heard from younger women and women my age is that the albums changed their lives or it was the first time they had heard feminism that they could relate to. So that's great.
Kathleen Hanna
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.
Kathleen Hanna
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.
Kathleen Hanna
It's so crazy because kids that wrote to me when they were 14 years old are still in my life. A lot have gone on to become musicians and artists in their own right who inspire me now.
