You don't know the power that you have with that tear in your hand
Tori Amos
Look, I'm standing naked before you Don't you want more than my sex? I can scream as loud as your last one, But I can't claim innocence.
Tori Amos
The sun is getting dim, will I pay for who I've been?
Tori Amos
There are things that I refuse to deal with except through my music... because I don't trust humanity that much, and I don't know if I trust me that much. But I trust the songs.
Tori Amos
I would love to compose something for dance before I kick the bucket, and I'm not closed-minded about the dance, or the dance company.
Tori Amos
My father was strict, but he recognised my ability and got a lot of flak from the church for supporting me.
Tori Amos
Musically, I always allow myself to jump off of cliffs. At least that's what it feels like to me. Whether that's what it actually sounds like might depend on what the listener brings to the songs.
Tori Amos
I'm a mother, and that's really important. Today, the mother and the musician can sit next to each other. Even when the musician is out there in full swing, the mother doesn't get switched off.
Tori Amos
You're only popular with anorexia.
Tori Amos
For many years, I shut down that place inside myself that needed to rage, cry, ask questions and basically just express herself. I made a conscious choice when I put (the song) 'Me and a Gun' on the record not to stay a victim anymore.
Tori Amos
The sense of loss is such a tricky one, because we always feel like our worth is tied up into stuff that we have, not that our worth can grow with things we are willing to lose.
Tori Amos
I wanna smash the faces of those beautiful boys, those Christian boys.
Tori Amos
To heal the wound, you have to go into the dark night of the soul.
Tori Amos
Your worst enemies are made when you ignore people. Those boys in America who shot dead classmates recently, didn't do that because they woke up with a positive self image that morning and then felt like slaughtering their friends.
Tori Amos
As the sun sets, we've all had those nights where you question your choices and where your life is going.
Tori Amos
What girls do to each other is beyond description. No chinese torture comes close.
Tori Amos
Sometimes it seems like we're closer to our manicurists than we are our own souls. We have to find ways to get in touch with that and to listen to it and to hear it.
Tori Amos
Even if everything else is downplayed, I'll wear good shoes.
Tori Amos
The romantic myth of the artist says that you are the Source. I have no illusion about that. Native Americans don't believe they are the Source. They have access to the Source. Endless access. But don't get confused.
Tori Amos
If you really want a challenge, just deal with yourself.
