“The ego is a fascinating monster.” — Alanis Morissette Quote

“The ego is a fascinating monster.”

“I was born in '74, so I missed out on all the great early '60s and early '70s.”

“I thought the more famous I became, the more friendships I would have, but the opposite was true.”

“I don't want the giant ego. I don't want to become Kevin Costner, singing on the soundtrack to The Postman.”

“I'm not in front of the camera, they are. I encourage them; I build up as much of their confidence and ego as possible. They've got to take control; I can't act it out.”

“Oh, there's so much ego with men; in their head, they can't possibly think about Tesco's when they are doing Othello. Er, why not? They want to think that they are such geniuses they can't muddy their day with domesticity, and I've got no truck with it whatsoever.”
