I wanted to be famous, I wanted everybody to love me. I wanted to be a star. I worked really hard, and my dream came true.

Rebel Heart changed everything. First of all, it drove me insane - and made me feel an overwhelming sense of anxiety. It made me second guess everything, because suddenly I thought, 'Oh god, everyone's heard all these demos.'

One set of circumstances does not complete you. Maybe nothing ever does. So you work on your life and you work on your 'work' and you try to live every single day like it's your last. And you try to be better, to yourself and to others. I don't always succeed. But I try and it's my goal.

No matter who you are, no matter what you did, no matter where you've come from, you can always change, become a better version of yourself.

I don't think ultimately God punishes. I think we bring about our own destruction or our own creation.

A lot of people are afraid to say what they want. That's why they don't get what they want.

You have to be patient. I'm not!
