Music saved my life. The voice you hear, the soul, the pain, is that of a person who deeply, deeply, deeply appreciates the opportunity they've been given.

The fact that you can love something that you've lost is all the incentive you need to love again, as opposed to becoming comfortably numb.

It's a double-headed coin, because technology is a convenience but it's stifled our attention spans. At one time, albums had songs that were like ten minutes long, with different variations and chord progressions and changes.

I get to thinking about my life, and it sometimes makes me want to make it interesting.

In my lifetime, I've come to realize that you can't depend upon other people for what you want. You can't be scared to go out and get it. You have to dream big, wish hard & chase after your goals, because no one is going to do it for you.

Christina Aguilera, to me, has one of the greatest voices of our time and I got nothing but respect for her.

I cry all the time. Music makes me cry.
