Bio"Since I was a little girl, I've been a musician first. I wasn't just an extension of the piano; I was the piano. That's how people looked at me." - Tori Amos
"I've been a musician before I was a human." - Tori Amos
"There are a lot of poets and groove people, but there's not much music out there. My own devotion is to music. Everyone told me this me-and-my-piano thing was never going to work." - Tori Amos
"I've never felt anything that moves me as much as my piano. I'm an emotional player. I don't really like people. I prefer my piano to people. It's totally reliable and it's alive. I can hear what it's saying. For the most part, pianos are female to me. Sometimes they're dykes, and they're always good fun." - Tori Amos
"I don't play the piano, the piano plays me." - Tori Amos
"If I couldn't play, I've no idea what kind of bitter person I would've become. Because that's where I was able to express some kind of freedom without guilt. Guilt for passion." - Tori Amos
"A piano is alive because of all the feeling the men working on it put into it." - Tori Amos
"Pianos are like people; every piano has a completely different personality." - Tori Amos
"I felt so intertwined with it that I had no identity except the girl at the piano, and I didn't respect it anymore, mainly because I wanted this piano to make me worth something. I wanted it to bring me friends and recognition...I was really using it the way you would your last name or who your father was - or whatever you use to feel powerful." - Tori Amos
"I guess you go too far, when pianos try to be guitars." - Northern Lad, Tori Amos
