The best part about getting knocked down is standing back up knowing what you didn't before.

I need to be happy. I need to set that example for my daughter so that she goes into something she loves, not because other people want her to do something. It's a good feeling, it's freeing.

Sexiness isn't being young, hot and wearing a bikini. It's being powerful and feeling like you belong in your skin and it feels good.

The trick to songwriting is writing in a poetic enough way that other people can identify with it.

It doesn't matter if you have something greater to say per say, just enjoy what you're doing.

It's very important to have a good song - one where you can strip away all the production and just play it on guitar or at the piano. It has to hold its own. That's why I've put videos online with acoustic versions of my songs, so you can hear them in their original form.

I don’t know what’s gonna happen in 30 years, and that’s…awesome.
