We'll love you just the way you are if you're perfect.

I'm excited about there being more of a sisterhood these days. Back in the '90s there was a lot of hate - the women I looked up to as artists were dissing me! It's not so patriarchal these days - there's more love and a lot less hate!

Typically I go in the studio and whatever I'm contemplating that day will wind up being a song. I don't come in with lyrics... I just go in and let it happen.

To whom do I owe the first apology? No one's been crueler than I've been to me.

Making a movie requires 20 to 500 people to make and a lot of money and the stakes are a lot higher.

I'm really clear about what my life mission is now. There's no more depression or lethargy, and I feel like I've returned to the athlete I once was. I'm integrating all the parts of me - jock, musician, writer, poet, philosopher - and becoming stronger as a result.

We're all ants. I'm a glittery little ant.
