Adults are just children sometimes. But evil, hurt children.

My focus, my life, my world is now. You just can't plan the future.

I think early on I avoided singing because it was so personal and I didn't know how to sit in that intimacy. I wrote songs when I was little and I wrote a journal, but I don't think I knew how to let that truth come out yet.

Art is the only thing that helps people stay alive, and it is the only thing that has allowed people to create joy in this insane, suppressive universe. And art is the only thing that they can't get rid of. They've tried, but ultimately they can't stamp it out.

I'm less of a straight-up, traditional vocalist.

Nobody would ever think, "Oh, get into acting so you can live the straight and narrow path," but it gave me a sense of discipline and focus.

I collect clothes-they keep building and building. I buy them instead of having them washed.
