Famous Carrie Brownstein Quotes

“It's very common to think that we're always evolving, that we've changed so much from our younger selves, that within decades we've transformed into these different people. We like to think that.

If you're spreading yourself out across the globe, you're also not emphasizing a singular point, which I think great rock music has always done.”
