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.

When I grow up I want to be an old woman.

I believe in the power of music. I believe in it absolutely. It's never failed me. Never.

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

People might say I'm difficult, but did you ever hear anyone describe a label as 'difficult'? By nature, artists should challenge. When they call you difficult, it is a reflection of the imbalance of power.

Making music should not be left to the professionals.

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