In tenth grade—this says a lot about how developmentally delayed I was—I had in my mind that it was the proper thing for me to have a love interest. And you'd see in movies where two characters instantly see each other and are, like, I'm in love!, and then it just cuts to them on a date or interacting...A lot of my adolescence was like that. Me thinking I was doing the right thing by re-creating a movie scene that I'd seen but then realizing that's not how it happens in real life.

Additional quotes by Mitski

I've always grown up feeling lonely or other, but through my music, I can be like: 'Look, we're the same, we've felt the same thing, so we're not so different. I belong here.' It's almost like a hungry monster that's just a constant need to feel connection.

…A lot of the 'yous' in my songs are abstract ideas about music...I will neglect everything else, including me as a person, just to get to keep making music…And even if it actually sometimes hurts, it doesn't matter as long as I get to be a musician.
