When someone says that Im angry its actually a compliment. I have not always been direct with my anger in my relationships, which is part of why Id write about it in my songs because I had such fear around expressing anger as a woman. – Alanis Morissette
In my opinion, I think sarcasm and humor in a song, without turning it into a novelty song, is really charming. – Alanis Morissette
Its a joke to think that anyone is one thing. Were all such complex creatures. But if Im going to be a poster child for anything, angers a gorgeous emotion. It gets a bad rap, but it can make great changes happen. – Alanis Morissette
I have a profound empathy for people who are in the public eye, whether they manifest it themselves or whether it happened by accident – it doesnt matter to me. I think theres a great misunderstanding of what it is to be famous. – Alanis Morissette
