Telling the truth to yourself and someone you can trust are great ways to help elevate your whole emotional quality.

I get bored very easily. I have a voracious appetite and I do not feel alive if I'm repeating something I'm good at. So I'm always looking for new challenges.

Music has given me a career. But even if it doesn't become yours it teaches you confidence and allows you to express your creativity.

I'm the classic absent-minded professor: I'm very focused on something, and meanwhile, I've left the refrigerator door open for hours.

I have hundreds and hundreds of songs waiting to get on albums, but I don't know about the three-month radio tours and if I'll be interested in that. I haven't figured it out, but I will definitely be doing music, whether it is independent or with a major record label.

We must demand more not from each other, but more from ourselves

Being part of the natural world reminds me that innocence isn't ever lost completely; we just need to maintain our goodness to regain it.
