“I aspire to be a better guitar player. I don’t aspire to be a better female guitar player. I was raised in an environment where gender didn’t matter, and I was never told I couldn’t do something because of my lack of an appendage. That mentality is detrimental to women moving forward in this industry. You shouldn’t rely on the fact you’re female, or make it a novelty. I don’t want to play like a dude. I just want to find my own style.” - Brody Dalle
