I have a hard time thinking of men trying to sing my songs, because I think my perspective is definitely feminine.

I've rarely done anything that's overtly self-destructive without consciously knowing what I'm doing. And then of course, the astute journalist jumps forward and says, "Why are you being calculated?" Calculated seems to assume a sinister intent. My intent is always for artistic effect.

Everything about life makes me lonely.

I've been too productive for too long, and despite what anybody wants to strip away from me, I am influential. I am.

I don't have to play by these rules or do these things... I can actually have my own kind of version.

It was shocking to see Nirvana play, because it was like, "Here's this little guy with a monster-guitar sound." And it was heavier than Black Sabbath. That was shocking.

I do not think wrestling is going to save the world.
