Liz Phair
Image
I prefer to be reclusive and private about my creation and then, once I'm finished, present it to people.
Liz Phair
Image
I don't know it just seemed like the cooler guys are playing Xbox. At least the ones I know.
Liz Phair
Image
After my first record came out, I read everything. I was so amazed that I was in the press.
Liz Phair
Image
Yeah, I like to be the maker of the art. And I like and want the money. But I don't really dig being famous.
Liz Phair
Image
When you love what you do, you're happy just doing it.

Music is sound. It's a wave. It's going out and coming back, and it's bouncing off.
Liz Phair
Image
