More quotes by 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
I realized that I really enjoy writing comedy, and how important comedy is when you feel like total crap.
Kathleen Hanna
I'm more interested in a feminism that ends discrimination for all people. It's not just about a woman becoming the CEO of a company or something. It's connected to racism and classism and gender issues that go beyond the binary.
Kathleen Hanna
I was making stickers for guys' bands. I was in the front row photographing bands, booking bands, doing all of the kind of backstage stuff, and I didn't even think for a second I could do it, and then I saw Babes in Toyland, and all that changed.
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
Young girls getting into feminism.
Kathleen Hanna
I wanted to say to myself as much as anyone else that we made art.
Kathleen Hanna
I don't consider myself a divining rod whom God is speaking through or any kind of crap like that.
Kathleen Hanna
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.
Kathleen Hanna
I don't want to waste the precious moments I have, and I've felt that way since I was 17. I have to take risks because why else would you be alive? Put your pirate patch on and go on an adventure because you only have one life to live.
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
I know I love sexy surf guitars, I know I love loud snare. I love really simple repeating bass lines, and I love weird mad scientist keyboard sounds.
Kathleen Hanna
I search the phrase Kellyanne Conway fails, and I'm just watching that Scottie [Nell Hughes] woman smirk all the time.
Kathleen Hanna
There's still a lot of misogynist pop music out there, and I think that hearing something that's so explicitly feminist and so angry - when we're still growing up in a culture where girls and women are not supposed to be angry - is a real revelation for young women.
Kathleen Hanna
When I first started out I actually was trying to use music to promote feminist ideas and at certain points, anti-violence against women and girls-type causes I was involved in.
Kathleen Hanna
When you speak up about any sense of unfairness or injustice, you're told that you're overreacting, you're too angry, too silly-shut up already. It takes a tremendous amount of fortitude to be able to live in this world as a woman, let alone a woman who wants things to change.
Kathleen Hanna
The cool thing about the Internet is that it's allowing women more access to their own history.
Kathleen Hanna
I have no clue. I just know I would want to play the least amount of shows that the most people would be able to come to.
Kathleen Hanna
I think as a culture, we don't like conflict or looking at icky stuff - especially in our downtime.
Kathleen Hanna
I'm so language-based and I'm so about communicating, and my art has always been very audience-based, and very about being functional and communicating something, and about feeling like I have to be heard.
