There's good stuff and bad stuff, but you continue on. I'm not prescriptive - I cannot tell anyone else what to do with their lives, and I'm a deeply flawed individual - but this is it. We're all just living it and... bless us all.

More than anything, I think everything about appearance is illusory. People see you, and they think they understand what you're projecting, but actually, they have their own interpretation of it, or they put a label on you.

The music industry has always been a beast, which would eat you up and spit you out.

I also started writing songs because I had this burning activity in my heart and had to express myself.

I was perceiving myself as good as a man or equal to a man and as powerful and I wanted to look ambiguous because I thought that was a very interesting statement to make through the media. And it certainly did cause quite a few ripples and interest and shock waves.

I think my daughters have a pretty healthy self-awareness but I can't speak on their behalf.

One realizes after a long time that, actually, we are contradictory, all of us.
