My first phone was two tin cans tied together with string, and it worked pretty good.

Find out what you are, then do it on purpose

Some things are strange to me, and some things are odd. But I don't condemn. If you can accept me, I can accept you.

I've used my femininity and my sexuality as a weapon and a tool... but that's just natural.

People think I'm as shallow and superficial as I look, and it's a surprise when they find out, sure enough, I am.

I just write all the time. In my whole life I've never had what I've heard people talk about writer's block. I've never had that. Life is like a song to me. I just hear everything in music, so I have never once thought "Well, I'm never gonna be able to write again." I've got thousands of songs.

Music is my personal addiction. So much of everything I've done has only been to open more doors for the music itself. It all gets back to the fact that I am, first of all, a songwriter and a singer.
