I'm not the type that's going to sit and preach to people if they don't need it just because I've been around the block a few times.

I'm the daughter of a sister whose the mother of a brother who's the brother of another.

I want every day to be life for the living, not just traipsing through it existing. I'm just interested in life and the world and exploring.

I've never wanted to be put into a box, not musically.

I feel like every woman is a queen, and we should be treated as such, and we should, you know, sort of request that sort of treatment from others.

I do feel like I have a direct connection with God for some reason; always have since I was a little kid - I would talk to God, talk to the sky.

I know people who are twice as creative as I am, twice as smart, but they didn't do anything because they feared going into a room and opening their mouths. My parents told me to truly accomplish things in my life, there would be times I would have to stand alone. It may be scary, but that's what it requires.
