I just want to make music and make a living. I just have to find the means of doing that.
Liz Phair
I can't say I don't get nervous, but I really kind of enjoy performing now.
Liz Phair
When it's me in my living room, it's pretty pure, and then what gets recorded involves more people, and it keeps escalating from there.

I love scoring. Putting music to picture is a rewarding challenge and one that relies on interpretation of emotion - as in, what is the pivotal feeling in a scene and which character's point of view is driving it at any given moment?
Liz Phair
Picture being forced to talk endlessly about your feelings and listen and care when what you needed was just to get something done.

I mean, I kind of remember... I'm 36 now, so it's kind of hard for me to relate to what it was like when I was 25, or 24, but I do remember a period in time when that's how I defined who I was, by the music I listened to and the movies I went to.

Music is sound. It's a wave. It's going out and coming back, and it's bouncing off.
Liz Phair
That's what music is to me. Like, stuff that I really like to play loud. And I've got my quiet CDs, too, that I listen to around the house, but if you can't go there, then... Everyone gets so upset with me, I can't win
Liz Phair
What does it mean when something changes how it's always been?
Liz Phair
Young kids don't have their identity, so everything is so important. Now I'm mature. I know who I am and I know what my thing is and I know what I'm bringing. It's very clear and defined.
Liz Phair
I don't always trust my own instincts. It would be nice if someone else would tell me what I should do with my life!
Liz Phair
Nothing feeds a hunger like a thirst
Liz Phair
When I was young, I used to need other people's albums and I got very involved with their music and it meant a lot to me.
Liz Phair
You're really creative when you're in an environment that you don't know how to handle. So collaborating was like that for me. I think that was one of the reasons why I knew I was gonna get a challenging reaction.
Liz Phair
Isn't this the best part of breakin' up? Finding someone else you can't get enough of. Someone who wants to be with you, too.
Liz Phair
When you love what you do, you're happy just doing it.
Liz Phair
I don't have the same access or time to gain access to music the way I used to.
