I want my whole life to be a great work of art, not just my art. And that means paying attention to my entire life and trying to make sure my whole life is balanced.

All things change. Cultivate flexibility rather than perfection.

My hands are small, but they're not yours, they are my own... I am never broken.

I've always been a workhorse.

I was turning 20 during my first record. Those decade birthdays always kind of cause me, it seems, to reflect, look back, and then look forward. I just was closing this period of my life where I was living in a car and scrambling my whole life to then signing a six-record deal with Atlantic.

My whole goal is to keep my spirit intact. If that doesn't happen, none of this is worth it.

I love to be alone with life. I love to study simple things: the light as it filters in a window; the music of a room full of people chatting; a horizon.
