I've always been in this sort of perpetual state of existential longing. I feel like something's missing.

I never really expected to win the hearts of the masses.

I'm pretty good with languages. I know a bit of French and actually want to live in France some day so that I can get fluent. I think it'd be tragic to go through life only knowing one language.

I'm able to see humor in a lot of things.

I finished 'Beautiful Creature,' and I felt somewhat unfulfilled. I felt like this other side of me needed to be released. Some of the songs I left off the album weren't intense enough to be what I wanted. They weren't hard enough.

I want to paint. That is probably going to sound so pretentious coming from someone who's been a musician.

I'm not a very good advice-giver.
