I was never somebody who grew up going, 'I really want to be a singer in a band,' and I never had any ambition toward anything, really.

I'm a really good parent to myself sometimes, and I do things that make me learn and grow.

It's true/ I do imbue my blue unto myself/ I make it bitter.

I don't want to be one of those people who claim to hate labels, but it's true. I even feel that we've got it all wrong with the whole gay/straight thing. There is a spectrum. Everybody is completely different. Some people are way over on this side of the spectrum, some are on the other side, and some are crossed in certain ways.

I want to move back to the East Coast. I like Venice, but L.A. is ugly. I would kill myself if I had to look out the window and see some places in L.A. every day.

It's a sad, sad world when a girl will break a boy, just because she can.

Everybody sees me as this sullen and insecure little thing. Those are just the sides of me that I feel it's necessary to show because no one else seems to be showing them.
