What’s the worst thing I've stolen? Probably little pieces of other people’s lives. Where I’ve either wasted their time or hurt them in some way. That’s the worst thing you can steal, the time of other people. You just can’t get that back.

When I'm writing, I'm constantly thinking about myself, because it's the only experience I have to draw on. And I don't see an exact reflection of myself in every face in the audience, but I know that my songs have validity to them, and that's why the fans are there.

Asking someone to describe what something sounds like is like telling a blind person to guess what I look like.

I don't drink. I choose to be sober now. I have drunk over the last six years, but I just don't want to be that person anymore.

If fans come up to me, I talk to them.

My favorite jellybean is the pink one with the flavor inside.

I don't like to hold back, because that's how you hurt yourself.
