When I sit down to write a song, I really want the message of healing to thrive and transcend all ages.

You can help me by advancing equality, supporting arts and education, and saving this goddamn planet.

You don't need a vacation when there's nothing to escape from.

New York City has the most beautiful women.

I write my miserable songs. I write songs about disgust and self-pity. We’re all going to have bummer moments. That’s not the stuff I choose to share.

My touring isn't about collecting souvenirs and always being on the go. My souvenirs are writing in my journal and creating new music, because that fits easily into my backpack when I'm travelling around the world. It's something that I can share later with fans or with future family members.

I feel like I write the same album every time but each time I try to convey the message more simply.
