It takes me probably about four hours to get into the groove [with making music]. And it's really important for me to not break the groove.

I've never lived outside of Canada, so I've been really cold my entire life. Most of my memories are coloured by the fact that I was really cold, just... all the time!

I have an intense desire to constantly make music, and I don't feel that way about anything else.

Mariah Carey is my favorite singer because her voice sounds utterly groundless. It's not even a human voice; it almost sounds mechanical.

I just can't perform well unless I'm wearing jeans.

I like going crazy. And not just for art - I like extremes in general.

Fashion can be a really powerful tool, but it's also a place where you can be totally humiliated and have your power taken from you.
