I know that being positive is a choice, and I try to make that choice every day.

If we can stay open and embrace our insecurities, our vulnerability, only then will we find the person with whom we are meant to travel through this life.

I want my songs to be heard by everyone.

I started writing songs so late and I had so many day jobs - jobs just to pay the bills. So, when I started doing this, I said, "I'm never gonna do anything to corrupt this. Never try to "sell it." Never gonna do anything to make this a job." I can go five months without writing a song. Then something will happen and I'll write six songs in a week.

Try to keep ourselves open, no matter how closed the world tries to make us sometimes.

Love is everything. Without it, I have no use for this world. When I'm not in love with someone, I feel empty and I can't think about anything but trying to find that someone.

If there's something that I really need to say that I can't say by speaking to someone, I usually write it in a song or a letter to someone.
