If I have something to apologize, I want to be the first one to step up and make that apology. I don't want anyone to broker it for me. I don't want anyone to take the hit for me. If I have anything to apologize for, I'm only human. I'm prone to making mistakes.

I try to look at this music career thing as the means to an end. And really, at the end of it, I see myself on a sailboat, sailing off the edge of the world.

We've come a long way, we've come a long way and we never even left L.A.

I can't tell you where I'm going . . . but I can tell you where I come from.

I've been through some dark times but I've experienced joy too. Now that joy can't be suppressed.

I resent like hell that I was maybe eighteen before I ever heard the 'L' word. It would have made all the difference for me had I grown up knowing that the reason I didn't fit in was because they hadn't told me there were more categories to fit into.

If I'm going to be held captive by social media, I'm going to use it against itself.
