What is the meaning of the name Bjork?

Birch tree!

[bjorkquotes]

I try to spend at least a couple of hours a day outdoors if I can. It gives me a sense of belonging and equilibrium. The days I manage to [spend entirely] in nature are usually sublime. It’s like your spirit, emotion, and body are forced to catch up with each other somehow.

[bjorkquotes]

I’m that sort of character who needs to explore the unknown. To feel alive.

[bjorkquotes]

If I ever sat down and listened to a guru tell me how to meditate, I would feel like I was having an affair. I would feel disloyal to my own temple.

[bjorkquotes]

I like berries. Precious little things. A little bit of this. A little bit of that. I don’t like in-between foods like a big plate of potatoes or bread. It’s just boring, not worth it. And I like really spicy things like Thai food. And I like tequilas, cognac. I like extreme, all-the-way tastes.

[bjorkquotes]

She’s never really compromised. It’s always been about reflecting how she sees something and externalizing something that’s inside. After spending time with her, I understood that it’s possible to not compromise and get away with it.

[bjorkquotes]

In my most natural state, I’ll be introverted for say, 6 days in a row, and then on the 7th day I’ll become very extroverted, completely inside-out. Then I’ll have to go back inside myself. Sometimes the change can be quite forceful—it’s something I can’t really control. It’s a bit like the ocean and the tides.

IX. THE HERMIT i live by the ocean and during the night i dive into it down to the bottom underneath all currents (Anchor Song)

[bjorkquotes]

I enjoyed being on my own so much, I never really understood the word loneliness. As far as I was concerned, I was in an orgy with the sky and the ocean.

Björk, Nylon (2000)
