More From Ani DiFranco
- "Sometimes the beauty is easy. Sometimes you don’t have to try at all. Sometimes you can hear the wind blow in a handshake. Sometimes there’s poetry written right on the bathroom wall."
- "Patriarchy is like the elephant in the room that we don’t talk about, but how could it not affect the planet radically when it’s the superstructure of human society."
- "I’d rather be able to face myself in the bathroom mirror than be rich and famous."
