“I started dancing when I was 7, and playing piano when I was 6, and writing songs when I was 9 and I had a record out when I was 10. I was on a television show between the ages of 10 and 12 and I put a record out both when I was 16 and 17, in Canada. Then I moved to California and released "Jagged Little Pill" and wrote it when I was 19 and 20. Then I wrote "Supposed (Former Infatuation Junkie)" three years later. I just finished "Under Rug Swept" about a year ago. And that's the musical and entertainment history�.
"I'll write records until I'm dead. And then maybe even after that!"
"I started writting songs when I was really little because there were things I could say through songs that I couldn't verbalize any other way. Writting was something I had to do."
"The whole celebrity thing is not something I'm overly interested in. I don't pop up at parties. It's just not my thing."
"We're taught to be ashamed of confusion, anger, fear and sadness, and to me they're of equal value as happiness, excitement and inspiration."
"Peace of mind for five minutes, that's what I crave."
"I want to walk through life instead of being dragged through it."
