I never went to concerts when I was a kid, so I never knew if what I was doing onstage was right.
Fiona AppleI've always said I don't want to have kids. I don't want a kid at all, but I do like reverse-engineering myself; managing and parenting myself.
Fiona AppleI think I'm better at live shows than I used to be because I'm way more comfortable with the uncomfortable pauses between songs.
Fiona AppleThrough the media, we've establishes this standard of what every human being should look up to: somebody who always looks right; who always has the right light on their face; never has bags under their eyes; never says anything inappropriate. Somebody who always somehow turns out perfect. I hate the fact that celebrities are supposedly a higher class of human being. That's the way I felt growing up, and that's the way I think a lot of people feel. So now that I'm in this position, I want to change things. I want to be like the patron saint of reality.
