More quotes by Tori Amos
A key to keeping your husband is getting him to miss you. That keeps a marriage fresh.
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've carved out a career for myself really as a writer.
Tori Amos

Tori Amos
I don't really cook. There are caterers, and my husband cooks.
Tori Amos
There's a richness to the old works if you look before the 1950s. The chord progressions and the language was more complicated, especially in the jazz and classical world.
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.
Tori Amos

Every place you land in life has a reason and a lesson.
Tori Amos
Carbon made only wants to be unmade.

Tori Amos
I produce the records. I don't hand over control to some really expensive producer who then talks to the record company and then tries to bend me to their will - for commercial purposes.
Tori Amos
I was very close to my mother as the youngest of three. She was my playmate.
Tori Amos
She's been everybody else's girl, maybe one day she'll be her own.
Tori Amos
I think everyone understands grief, the journey it takes us on, whether it's the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, a disappointment. Some people don't deal with it, the power of it. Some do. Some feel the weight of it and it informs their choices. I've had to open up to grief in different contexts.
Tori Amos
Let's be honest. You let yourself be pulled in because it felt good to be wanted, needed. But then it went too far, as projected images always do. If it's not a real image, but one that has been projected on to you, then you can keep up the masquerade for only so long before the mask cracks and the paint on the mask peels away.
Tori Amos
After a while of getting jerked around, you realize what the business is really made up of.
Tori Amos
I don't want to sit on the sidelines and not value the gift of being here. Instead of the idea of time ticking away, the grains of sand running out, I try to think of time as giving me another grain of sand, another gift. So time passing is an accumulation, rather than a diminishing.
Tori Amos
I wanted to marry Lucifer... I don't consider Lucifer an evil force...I feel his presence with his music. I feel like he comes and sits on my piano.
