I think being really connected to a higher power, of having a spirituality to me, has been really good for me and I pray all the time.

I'm not ashamed of what I am and that I have curves and that I'm thick. I like my body.

I realize that I want something more. Success is great, but then you also wake up in your hotel room at four in the morning and you're like, wouldn't it be nice to have someone here with me.

When I was first learning songs, I'd have a favorite song, and I'd take the chords and twist them around. I'd learn the chords and then play them backward. That was my first experimenting with writing a song.

I've always been strong-minded, but I wonder.

There are so many things where I realize, like, simple circumstance, like the simple choice that I made one night to not do that and to do this, one night could have changed everything.

The most important thing is to be proud of the work that you put into something, and put the ego aside.
