I am not a religious person, but I am spiritual. But I don't believe in things like guilt.

I feel everyone is put here for a reason. Everyone has a calling. I always thought my real calling was to help other people.

When you hear bad things about yourself, just put your energies into something else; it's no good crying about it. Just put it into your music - it'll make you stronger.

I need you like the blues needs the pain.

The pain is necessary. Sometimes pain is the teacher we require, a hidden gift of healing and hope.

I do want to get married again, and I want to have kids. And this time, I really want to do it right.

I truly felt that was going to be my last tour. So here we are again and I'm saying this will probably be my last tour. That's truly the way I'm looking at it.
