I ride a bicycle everywhere I go, the physical strength is obvious, but my mental strength and my capacity to love myself and to love others has definitely expanded. And that's the one thing I need the most in taking on a life of touring and a life of basically being with hundreds of people every day and not exhaust one's energy.

It's through my health that I'm able to maintain that every single day and keep light in people until I'm actually of service to others.

Writing songs is no different than explaining to somebody what you dreamed last night: No one ever gives you crap for what you dreamed last night. "I was laying in my bed, and all of a sudden a stallion jumped on my bed and the next thing I know I was in Mars but it looked like my kitchen"... That's kind of what I do with my songs, write them in a dream-like manner. It's up to people to swallow it however they want.

For every action there’s a reaction. And also, for every action there’s an equal and opposite criticism.

I didn't want to be a headshot and get a chance to go compete to sing-that's not me.

When I fall in love I take my time There's no need to hurry when I'm making up my mind You can turn off the sun but I'm still gonna shine and I'll tell you why.

If I'm in a relationship, that girl gets showered with letters from the road. I pour my heart into it.
