Tori Amos
I'm obsessed with crocodiles and getting eaten by one. When I hear that someone's been eaten by a crocodile or shark, I just get all gooey. I start salivating.
Tori Amos
Hair is gray and the firers are burning. So many dreams on the shelf. You say I wanted you to be proud of me. I always wanted that myself.

Tori Amos
Adolescence is that time when I think, it can be- it's the cruelest place on Earth. It can really be heartless.
Tori Amos
I have never smoked and have always drunk a lot of water, but cleanse, tone and moisturise every day? No way!
Tori Amos
Sometimes you have to do what you don't like to get to where you want to be.
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
She's been everybody else's girl, maybe one day she'll be her own.
Tori Amos
The most important thing to me as a songwriter is the breath. The most important thing I could say to somebody is, 'Sometimes I just breathe you in.'
Tori Amos
I don't choose to analyze what I have done and I think that is the right choice, because then I won't be spending my time creating.
