Famous quotes by Liz Phair:

"No firm plans, ... But we're all talking about it."

"They're different, ... We record the live shows and it's very unprofessional at this point -- like, sometimes they sound good and sometimes they sound terrible but it's really fun. It's like having my own little radio show. I think it's great. We listen to all of the (National Public Radio) stuff on Sundays. It's kind of like having my own version."

"Being commercial is a prerequisite for staying afloat, ... I mean, it's desperate out there and you have to fit in a little, you have to go somewhere."

"When I wrote"

"He had a big impact in terms of how I perceive myself and my job,"

"I'm very different; that was 12 years ago, ... I hate to think it's like I'm still going around saying f--- you."

"Exile on Main Street."

"Once upon a time I was so restless in love / When things were fine I changed my mind just because / Now I see how wrong and reckless I've been / Each frog has a prince / Just waiting inside of him, ... Somebody's Miracle."

"Come on, you can tolerate it,"

"I am a feminist, and I define myself: Be yourself, because if you can get away with it, that is the ultimate feminist act"

"Everything that people lob at you who don't know you, it all hurts. When you're doing something as simple as making music, which really, theoretically, shouldn't hurt anyone - I mean, it's a song! Step back for five seconds and laugh."

"You know, you become an artist, you become an observer, of life, and you digest life by making art about it."

"I think good art happens on that edge between comfortable and in a lot of pain, you know what I mean?"

"The big news already broke. The file-sharing and all that stuff, it's a done deal. And I think figuring out how to make that a fair exchange for the people that make music is still an issue."

"That's what music is to me. Like, stuff that I really like to play loud. And I've got my quiet CDs, too, that I listen to around the house, but if you can't go there, then... Everyone gets so upset with me, I can't win."

"It's important to have people who will say to you that you're really off the beaten track."

"I don't know what the future holds. Anything is possible."

"I was trying to break out of the suburbs, and when I did break out, I don't think I took my whole self with me - I think I played a role of being too cool and hip."

"Picture being forced to talk endlessly about your feelings and listen and care when what you needed was just to get something done."

"After my first record came out, I read everything. I was so amazed that I was in the press."
