I am a person who always feels like I am not doing the right thing because there's always so many things that need to get done.

I wanted to be part of changing the world. I don't want to just stand by and watch it be however it is.

I thought there were too many songs about people's personal lives.

I wanted to write a song about sexism, but I didn't want to do it in a mechanical way and be like, "Don't be sexist!" because that's not how I talk in regular life.

In reality, I know I'm not hurt directly by sexism; however, my life is made less because of it, so I started thinking about the fallout from relationships in which people feed off each other.

A lot of us don’t get a sense of our personal power. I know the vast difference that one person can make in changing things.

When my daughter was born, that was the first time I cried from happiness.
