I don't have time to stand around and listen to an 11-minute song.

Until I was a teenager, I used red pokeberries for lipstick and a burnt matchstick for eyeliner. I used honeysuckle for perfume.

The world is my stage. I try to be good at it, whatever part I'm playing - even in my daily life or when the spotlight hits me on the stage to perform - I gotta be alive every second in this world. With or without the applause!

I sing as an actress. Whatever I'm singing about, I just become the story.

I never thought, in my lifetime, that you'd be able to watch movies, read books and listen to music from a phone, but I guess the technology of tomorrow is here today.

God has his plans and his reasons. Sometimes we are supposed to go through things so that we learn lessons.

I have a strict policy that nobody cries alone in my presence.
