More quotes by Tori Amos
Some people say, I'd give anything to be 30 again. Well, I really wouldn't. I didn't enjoy being 30.
Tori Amos
Over the last few hours I've allowed myself to feel defeated, and just like she said if you allow yourself to feel the way you really feel, maybe you won't be afraid of that feeling anymore.
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
I've never felt anything that moves me as much as my piano. I'm an emotional player. I don't really like people. I prefer my piano to people. It's totally reliable and it's alive. I can hear what it's saying.
Tori Amos
Getting people to go above and beyond the call of duty can be achieved but only if you, the artist, are willing to go above and beyond any and all calls of duty yourself.
Tori Amos

From in the shadow she calls. And in the shadow she finds a way, finds a way. And in the shadow she crawls, clutching her faded photograph. My image under her thumb. Yes with a message for my heart. She’s been everybody else’s girl maybe one day she’ll be her own.

Tori Amos
I don't really cook. There are caterers, and my husband cooks.
Tori Amos
Music is always a reflection of what's going on in the hearts and minds of the culture.
Tori Amos
My grandmother really liked virgins. There's nothing wrong with virgins, there's a time and a place for that. I had other things on my mind... like Robert Plant.
Tori Amos
I don't want to give too much ink to foolish men.
Tori Amos
Where we focus our energy is where we will get the results.
Tori Amos
There's room for everybody on the planet to be creative and conscious if you are your own person. If you're trying to be like somebody else, then there is isn't.
Tori Amos
I know I'm an acquired taste - I'm anchovies. And not everybody wants those hairy little things.
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
So then I though I'd make some plans, but Fire thought she'd really rather be Water instead.
