Everything I listen to is influential in some way.

I had a hundred and seventeen days in which to convince Will Traynor that he had a reason to live.

What if the genetically superior male is actually a bit of a dickhead?

I look up to people who succeed in accomplishing their dreams.

When I was 4 or 5 and I could put complete thoughts together and really feel them, I remember watching the Grammy's or something like that and getting real emotional because I wanted to be up there.

I'd like to hope you end up a miserable, lonely woman. But actually, I hope you have children one day, Ellie Haworth. Then you'll know how it feels to be vulnerable. And to have to fight, to be constantly vigilant, just to make sure your children get to grow up with a father.

I love being creative.
