Everybody enjoys arguing about the current state of music because it feels as if you are talking about something incredibly important, yet it requires little understanding of the subject matter at hand. It's like world politics meets the pink questions in Trivial Pursuit. Points are made but nothing gets accomplished.

I mean, I’m quite happy. I’m happy in all aspects of my life. I'm very happy in all aspects of my life.

Stop falling in love with everything that lets you down, even if your hands are shaking and your faith is broken, even as the eyes are closing, do it with a heart wide open. Say what you need to say.

I hope that what it comes down to at the end of the day is that people believe that I believe what I'm singing. It comes down to being believable. You don't have to be likeable; generally, though, I think I am.

I believe that my life's gonna see the love I give returned to me.

You look so good it hurts sometimes.

If you never stop when you wave goodbye you just might find, if you give it time, you will wave hello again.
