Alanis Morissette's quotes

  • We're taught to be ashamed of confusion, anger, fear and sadness, and to me they're of equal value to happiness, excitement and inspiration.
  • Peace of mind for five minutes, that's what I crave.
  • The whole celebrity thing is not something I'm overly interested in. I don't pop up at parties. It's just not my thing.
  • Music will always be a part of my life. I love music and I don't care how many units I sell.
  • That what we judge in someone else, we are really judging in ourselves.
  • So many times I've been just gripping the steering wheel and driving, and just have a piece of paper on where my horn is, and just writing sort of looking up and down. I've done that so much! It'll be worth the crash.
  • I have not an ounce of regret. Every link is so valuable in forming the chain that is my life. Who I am today is because of those links, and I wouldn't change any of them.
  • Every time I go through something difficult, I think, 'This is the mother-load. I'm not going to get through this one.' And then, six months later, I'm like, 'What's his name again?'
  • Jagged Little Pill was such an insulated experience, not only the writing of it, but then the touring of it. I felt so solitary, like I was in survival mode.
  • After being in the public eye for a long time, I get why people don't want to be here.
