There's no way to convince people of your greatness. Whatever it is that you want to be, you have to know it inside and knife-fight your way to your dream.

You may never reach that glorious moment until you die, so live life on the edge halfway between heaven and hell...and let's all dance in the middle in purgatory.

'Cause you can't buy a house in heaven!

I want my fans to love themselves. It's almost like I want to hypnotize them so when they hear my music they love themselves instantly.

Well, that's your opinion, isn't it? And I'm not about to waste my time trying to change it.

There's something about lonely nights and my lipstick on your face

In the deepest hour of the night I confess to myself three things; I would die if I was forbidden to write, forbidden to love, or forbidden to fashion....love each other, and celebrate the art and lifestyle of music.
