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
When you love what you do, you're happy just doing it.

I just want to hear the true voices of women self-expressing - smart ones, stupid ones, ugly ones, beautiful ones, good ones, bad ones, fat ones, thin ones, all of it - until the profound silence that has resounded throughout history is filled with a healthy chorus coming from our side of the aisle.
Liz Phair
I'm really happy to be a mom, and I'm proud of the phase I'm in.
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!
