I always said I never wanted to write about love, but then I went and did that anyway.

Life's short. Anything could happen, and it usually does, so there is no point in sitting around thinking about all the ifs, ands and buts.

The jazz I love is sweet and pure with raw elements, which is exactly what the good hip-hop is doing now.

And as a writer, your self-worth is literally based on the last thing you wrote.

Life happens. There is no point in being upset or down about things we can't control or change.

A song marks an occasion in my life and that's how I live my life, by songs.

Cause there's nothing, there's nothing you can teach me That I can't learn from Mr. Hathaway.
