I will lay down my life if it sets us free.

I was one of several songwriters I think interviewed [for Moana]. I'm a huge fan of Disney animated movies, and I've always wanted to write an animated score since I was a little kid.

Once George Washington said, "I have to step down the so the country can move on."

I just remembered when I was an adolescent girl wanting to leave my island and find my calling.

I'm a diamond in the rough, a shiny piece of coal trying to reach my goal.

My power of speech, unimpeachable. Only 19 but my mind is older.

I remind myself Vincent van Gogh died without having sold a single painting. Like, art is not measured by the trappings that people attached to it. It's the thing itself, and so, as you know, it's been a dream of mine to write songs for Disney, and so, it's really exciting to finally hear. It's two and a half years.
