If you just take one foot in front of the other without any protection, you may end up falling off the fence.

By the time I was about ten, I had started to lose faith with church ways. I was educated in some ways by my high school government and history teachers.

I don't understand that about Taylor Swift, or about Joan [Mitchell] - how can she not say she's a feminist?! People don't understand what the word means. It simply means equal rights before the law.

Things are changing. They need to change more. It should not be of any note that a woman does something, because women do everything.

Singers, musicians, and songwriters don't want to use the word "acting" because we want it to be more real than that - we want it to come from us: naturally, truly, really.

Artists are able to do well in the political arena because of fame, if only they can educate themselves.

I do use reality because I want my work to feel real, I want it to feel heartfelt. I don't want to make it up and have it sound corny or unrelatable.
