American liberty is premised on the accountability of free men and women for what they have done, not for what they may do.

My tumour is a benign pituitary tumour, in the pituitary gland - which is the main hormone centre of the body. It's in the centre of the brain. (Fun fact, [Rene] Descartes thought our consciousness was to be found in the pituitary gland.) And the thing is, there aren't really many symptoms that show until it's too late.

I don't want to date celebrities, I don't want to roll out of clubs absolutely steaming, make an idiot out of myself. I want to concentrate on my music career.

I went and studied music in Leeds. It really woke me up socially, to stop being so naïve and narrow-minded.

People keep comparing me to people, and I just ignore it.

I'm still quite small-minded and small-town, and people look at me like, "You're too famous to remember me." I want to give them a tap on the shoulder and thank them.

I do like expressing how I feel about things in my music.
