What's that line from TS Eliot? To arrive at the place where you started, but to know it for the first time. I'm able to write about a breakup from a different place. Same brokenness. Same rock-bottom. But a little more informed, now I'm older. Thank God for growing up.

These precious illusions in my head did not let me down when I was defenseless, and parting with them is like parting with invisible best friends.

I know that I'm deeply, spiritually, profoundly philosophical and I also know that I'm about the flakiest person you're gonna meet.

I highly recommend getting older! There's less tendency to people-please.

When I start writing songs and it turns into an overly belabored intellectual process, I just throw it out.

Your choice of armor was your intellect.

I want to walk through life instead of being dragged through it.
