[Miley Cyrus] got a fantastic voice. I do think she's a fantastic artist and does great songs. I wish her all the best.

I get tweets every single day going, like, 'I'm so glad you weren't on 'The X Factor.''

I think encouraging young people to twerk might be a bad thing. It's a stripper's move. If I had a daughter of nine, I wouldn't want her twerking.

People fall in love in mysterious ways. Maybe it's all part of a plan.

My uncle always said, ‘Hurry slowly.’ I guess, it means, have the intensity of love but don’t rush into it. Have the full feeling but take it slow. Ease into it.

Paper or razor blade, never give up And just remember just to hold out more A couple years ago I couldn't just control that thought You'd find me buskin' on the street When it was cold outdoors And now I'm sweating on the stage With the sold out tours Writing love songs for the sake of it Never to make a hit

No one else is going to do it for you, if you want it bad enough then go out and do it yourself.
