If people want to know the truth, why don't they just come to me and ask?

I don't believe in luck. ... It's persistence, hard work, and not forgetting your dream.

You can't hold the record forever, and I know that. I'm not stupid.

To have someone to relate to and hopefully enjoy the music and get a positive message out of it, to make the best music that we possibly could, those were the goals.

There are two things that really move me: music and acting. And I'm not talking about my music or watching myself as an actor, but listening to other people's music and watching other actors. There are so many different songs that have moved me. It all depends upon the mood that I'm in at that moment.

I'm shy, although I'm not shy with my friends and family.

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