Evanescence fans aren't the popular kids in school. They aren't the cheerleaders. It's the art kids and the nerds and the kids who grow up to be the most interesting creative people.

Too bad you can't quote the look on my face.

Success gave me confidence as an artist. And now I'm able to do what I want without anybody thinking it's dumb.

Every time a cool rock chick or actress seems to respect themselves as a strong woman, I'm like, 'Yeah!' And I love them, and they're my girls. And then they start to go downhill and people aren't paying attention anymore. So they start stripping their clothes off, because that's all they have left. I swear to everything I've ever known, I will never do that

You are who you are, there's nobody like you, and to try and be like someone else is just a lie.
