Maybe it's just a personal thing, but I get so much grounding from Iceland because I know it's always going to be there. I have a very happy, healthy relationship with the country, so it's really easy to go everywhere because I always have Iceland to go back to. It's sort of a contradiction, but that's how it works somehow.

I get embarrassed listening to my last CDs. I've got a lot of work to do, let's put it that way.

I am grateful... grapefruit.

I feel like the people from Iceland have a different relationship with their country than other places. Most Icelandic people are really proud to be from there, and we don’t have embarrassments like World War II where we were cruel to other people.

If travel is searching and home what's been found, I'm not stopping. I'm going hunting.

I never want to know the range of my voice. It has to be impulsive, and I don't want to kill the mystery.

I have always had a certain song in my head, a certain chemistry of sounds.
