I've gone through stages where I hate my body so much that I won't even wear shorts and a bra in my house because if I pass a mirror, that's the end of my day.

I don't know if anybody wants to mix their politics with their entertainment.

My mind goes to tragedy first.

I think I'm better at live shows than I used to be because I'm way more comfortable with the uncomfortable pauses between songs.

In a strange way, I'm way more comfortable onstage than anywhere else.

Home is where my habits have a habitat

One of my friends said to me, "Oh yeah, of course you aren't writing." So I was like, "The next time you see me, I'm gonna have a new song." I wrote "Criminal" in 45 minutes when everyone else went to lunch because I had to have a hit. I can force myself to do the work, but only if someone is right up behind me.
