Love and pain become one and the same in the eyes of a wounded child.

I wasn't interested in fabricating things and altering what I did to make hit records.

If you're retired, it's a blessing. You know, if you want to keep working and doing what you want to do, it's not a blessing as all - it's a curse.

Love is more than a one way reflection, stop using sex as a weapon.

I felt I had a responsibility to do the right thing. And then I wanted to do the right thing by my family and there was no handbook.

Everything that we do I pretty much want to be organic, so if that happens, then that's okay with me. But I'm not interested in trying to re-create what once was. That doesn't interest me; it's boring.

I like Lady Gaga because I like that she pushes the envelope.
