More quotes by Tori Amos
She's been everybody else's girl, maybe one day she'll be her own.
Tori Amos

It's been a thrilling journey - I have had to really learn that an orchestra is an entity - it's a creature. I have been calling it the dragon and the conductor is the dragon tamer. And you just have to ... ride and don't let go and you will be fine.
Tori Amos
I'm really quite happy to say that in my early 40s, I wake up feeling sexy, and I can't say I felt that way in my late 20s.

Tori Amos
Years go by Will I still be waiting For somebody else to understand Years go by If I'm stripped of my beauty And the orange clouds Raining in head Years go by Will I choke on my tears Till finally there is nothing left One more casualty You know we're too easy Easy Easy
Tori Amos

Tori Amos
I like involved projects.
Tori Amos
And my Saab is so great I'm gonna marry it.
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
If you can surrender your protection devices, in order to track the potentially raw and perhaps elusive emotions that are the song's DNA, then that is creative vulnerability, which is ultimately hugely empowering.
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
The way I see it, the men that I'm with, whoever they are, it's like look, you have to accept the fact that I like ice cream, and I know it shows up on my hips but if you can't accept that, then leave. Go away, toodles. It is non-negotiable.
Tori Amos
Sometimes, I think Trent just needs a cup of hot chocolate and a blankie.
Tori Amos
In my new life, no room for a lost boy.
Tori Amos
I collect art books. I have hundreds and hundreds of them and they get me to start hearing things. Sometimes people look at them, but I find that visual art gets me listening, gets me hearing things.
