I was lucky to have read a lot of poetry when I was younger; it helped me to remember a way to write.

I loved English literature - if didn't it would have been hard - but I had to learn it myself. I remembered ways to repeat words, to put more emphasis on certain lines.

We're all competent in different ways, we've just got to find a way to push ourselves up more.

Some people will never be able to get their real self, but that's fine, because their fake self is also part of them.

Poetry itself is music. I'm just lucky that I can convert it into music.

People take things too literal in the Bible and it's totally wrong.

[My music] is opposite to fashion.
