I really like 'This Side of Paradise' by F. Scott Fitzgerald. I think it's a cool description of a character.

I love Cher Lloyd's music. I didn't actually hear her music as I was creating my own, but it's cool that we have styles that are considered to be similar.

I think I learned a lot about collaboration and about joint creativity with other people. It is honestly so much fun and I don't think that I would have had the same album if I had just written it by myself.

I have enjoyed writing songs for so long... it felt like in order to make music that I could relate to myself, I would have to be a part of the writing process.

When things get tough, you should seek out someone like a coach or friend or family member to talk things through with.

Being bullied is something I experienced in school, and it is not fun.

The voting station was like a block and a half from my house, so me and my parents just walked on over and cast our ballots, and it was really cool. I love the civic pride of being a part of this national activity.
