A Quote by Tori Amos

Vulnerability can be empowering as a songwriter and storyteller. — © Tori Amos
Vulnerability can be empowering as a songwriter and storyteller.
The Internet is empowering everybody. It's empowering Democrats. It's empowering dictators. It's empowering criminals. It's empowering people who are doing really wonderful and creative things.
I've always wanted to be a songwriter and a storyteller and somebody who conveys a feeling to the listener or the viewer.
Revenge tries to solve the problem of vulnerability. If I strike back, I transfer vulnerability from myself to the other. And yet by striking back I produce a world in which my vulnerability to injury is increased by the likelihood of another strike. So it seems as if I'm getting rid of my vulnerability and instead locating it with the other, but actually I'm heightening the vulnerability of everyone and I'm heightening the possibility of violence that happens between us.
We need the expressive arts, the ancient scribes, the storytellers, the priests. And that's where I put myself: as a storyteller. Not necessarily a high priestess, but certainly the storyteller. And I would love to be the storyteller of the tribe.
Working with Robert, Robert [Elswit] is a storyteller. He's not a cinematographer, he's a storyteller. And to me, that's the graduation I hope to get to in my profession. That I'm not just an actor, I'm a storyteller. And I think that takes a long time in, when you have one job on a movie set. Makeup artists, actor, whatever. To graduate from just that to storyteller.
If you can surrender your protection devices, in order to track the potentially raw and perhaps elusive emotions that are the song's DNA, then that is creative vulnerability, which is ultimately hugely empowering.
You turn the computer into the storyteller and the player into the audience, like in the old days when the storyteller would actually respond to the audience, rather than just having the audience respond to the storyteller. I had an enormous amount of fun, actually, working on that.
Forgiveness is about empowering yourself, rather than empowering your past.
Be the catalyst for change. Empowering women, empowering humanity
By recognizing your own vulnerability you can recognize and identify with the vulnerability in others.
There is no intimacy without vulnerability. Yet another powerful example of vulnerability as courage.
I love finding the vulnerability in characters. There's truth there. There's beauty in vulnerability.
I'm a storyteller. If I have that on my precis when I go, 'Storyteller,' I'm satisfied with that.
The role of the storyteller is to awaken the storyteller in others.
I am definitely a storyteller, but probably not a traditional Storyteller.
I think of myself in the oral tradition-as a troubadour, a village tale-teller, the man in the shadows of the campfire. That's the way I'd like to be remembered- as a storyteller. A good storyteller.
