Sometimes people forget their own greatness.

Music is a weapon in the war against unhappiness.

The measure of your character is not what you do when people are looking. It’s what you do when you think no one is looking.

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.

I would enjoy doing what cats do: singing, sleeping, and licking my nuts.

When I have a breakthrough in music and I hear the melody in my hands: that's when I get compelled - something in my gut just has to rise up and sing and put something to that.

I discovered at 18 that singing and songwriting was my strength. I decided that it was closest to my heart and if I pursued it then there would be no competition. I would just live my life being myself and living my dream.
