I panic every time I put out a record. I think every artist does.

Only the one that hurts you can make you feel better. Only the one that inflicts pain can take it away

A good relationship is a competition of generosity.

I didn't really give a sh** what's going on in the rest of the world. I just didn't. I just wanted to focus on me, me, me, my career, my life, just me - blinders.

I keep telling everyone that I want to start a revolution but no one is taking me seriously. If I had black skin and an afro, would you take me seriously? If I was an Arab waving a hand grenade, would you take me seriously?

I'm not sorry, it's human nature.

I refuse to act the way someone expects me to.
