I'm just kind of sick of music. I don't know what I want to do. It's not that I feel suicidal or anything, but I just want to end this life. I just want to be somebody else now. Sometimes I feel like that. You always think, "If I just cut my hair really short and dye it brown and put on a little goatee, no one would know it was me, and I could..."

I really don't care what people say. It's amazing that feminism continues to exist at all, considering how much counter-feminism is out there.

I'd been knocking on record companies' doors for so long, and I had gone on a lot of auditions. It's weird when you go to those auditions through the Village Voice or something. You never know what to expect. You just press Floor 3 on the elevator and pray that it's not... You know, anyone can place an ad, so it's really freaky.

In New York City, when they develop something, they never use the old buildings. It's so wasteful. Why not use what's there?

The civilised cultures are the most cruel. It's the same with education - often it breeds sadistic forms of cruelty.

There's a side of me that identifies with Aileen Wuornos.

I never know how to get off the phone, so I'm terribly admiring of people who can.
