More quotes by 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
Music is sound. It's a wave. It's going out and coming back, and it's bouncing off.
Liz Phair
There's even more stuff that I'd like to release, but I'm scared to, that's really, um, nerdy... not nerdy in a good way. Like, silly.
Liz Phair
I am comfortable performing now. I love it!
Liz Phair
That's exactly what's exciting for me - the idea of infiltrating the male structure and affecting change from within.

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
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
I can't say I don't get nervous, but I really kind of enjoy performing now.
Liz Phair
No. You know what really bugs me about my videos? When they can't figure out what to do, they just have me change clothes five times.
Liz Phair
I just want to make music and make a living. I just have to find the means of doing that.
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.
Liz Phair
I prance around and dance by myself to hip-hop songs in the mirror.
Liz Phair
The big news already broke. The file-sharing and all that stuff, it's a done deal. And I think figuring out how to make that a fair exchange for the people that make music is still an issue
Liz Phair
I can feel it in my bones: I'm gonna spend my whole life alone.
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
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
I knew that collaborating on songwriting would be difficult for a lot of people, because I was known very much, for my independence and the fact that I wrote these quirky songs that were not typical structure, not typical sound - you know, really original stuff.
Liz Phair
All parents gush about what it's like to be a parent. I love it.
Liz Phair
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.
Liz Phair
I love stretching myself musically.
