"It’s when someone has an agenda of their own for the record that it doesn’t work for me." ― Alanis Morissette Topic(s): Work Tags: someone More From Alanis Morissette "My message to anyone who’s afraid that they can’t write music when they’re happy is ‘Just trust the passion.’ The passion can write a lot of things." "What’s that line from TS Eliot? To arrive at the place where you started, but to know it for the first time. I’m able to write about a breakup from a different place. Same brokenness. Same rock-bottom. But a little more informed, now I’m older. Thank God for growing up." "There’s a continuity between what I care about in any form: I care about it in my music, in article-writing, in how I dress, in how I live, in my relationships, in how I navigate paparazzi, how I decorate my home. There’s such a continuity between everything that I don’t really care what form it shows up in." More In Work "You don’t have to turn on the TV set. You don’t have to work on the Internet. It’s up to you."― Ray Bradbury "I’m going to work so that it’s a pure guts race at the end, and if it is, I am the only one who can win it."― Steve Prefontaine "Managers in all too many American companies do not achieve the desired results because nobody makes them do it."― Harold S.
