More quotes by Liz Phair
I prance around and dance by myself to hip-hop songs in the mirror.
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
That's exactly what's exciting for me - the idea of infiltrating the male structure and affecting change from within.
Liz Phair
It seems to me like the Internet allows you to break that structure a little bit. You know, here's your CD that's going into stores, here's your EP that you offer online, here's a subscription for songs you recorded on the road, here's your live stuff streaming.
Liz Phair
Just to prove i was right that it's harder to be friends than lovers and you shouldn't try and mix the two, cause if you do and then you're still unhappy, then you know that the problem is you.
Liz Phair
I don't know it just seemed like the cooler guys are playing Xbox. At least the ones I know.
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
I love stretching myself musically.
Liz Phair
I've lost touch with a lot of that boutique-type music just because of my age, and raising my son and the multiple jobs I have at this point.
Liz Phair
I'm competitive, so I don't like to feel marginalized by the people who sell a lot of records.
Liz Phair
I am comfortable performing now. I love it!
Liz Phair
Women's bodies are used to sell anything and everything because it works, it grabs people's attention, and advertisers aren't going to stop using something that works.
Liz Phair
I just want to make music and make a living. I just have to find the means of doing that.
Liz Phair
I am a feminist, and I define myself: Be yourself, because if you can get away with it, that is the ultimate feminist act.
Liz Phair
What does it mean when something changes how it's always been?
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
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 probably had some impact, because everyone keeps telling me that I did. I like to feel like I'm coming out with something to try to make room for other young women to make their art.
Liz Phair
It was a source of shame for my family that I was in rock and roll, which is so blue-collar. It just isn't done. And I felt it, too.
Liz Phair
I can feel it in my bones: I'm gonna spend my whole life alone.
