I don't like being alone. I haven't been alone since I got a boyfriend.

I didn't have parents who were, you know, racing to get a reality television show, you know? Or looking to benefit in some way from their daughter's fame.

I feel like women very often do write differently than men, but women write things that men can't write.

Sometimes when people have kids young, they're not ready.

I write in bed, too. I find it very comforting. I want to sort of, like, crawl in a fetal position if I have to.

I like to say, jazz music is kind of like my musical equivalent of comfort food. You know, it's always where I go back to when I just want to feel sort of grounded.

Usually the kids are portrayed as very one-dimensional. Like these mindless animals that just have three things on their minds: getting laid, getting drunk, and driving real fast over Mulholland Drive.
