I've always said that the experience of meeting an artist that you are in awe of and that you hope to create with one day is usually disappointing because you put them up on a pedestal, and then you're like, 'Wow, that's not a nice person.'

I can't selfishly take journeys anymore because I have to take a little boy along with me.

As connected as we are with technology, it's also removed us from having to have human connection, made it more convenient to not be intimate.

Did I really earn this, or did I just wear you all down?

I am exactly where I want to be now. You can't go backward. I'm not going backward. I'm grateful that I'm here, blessed to have what I have. Nobody can be prepared for anything. If you end up in a place where you can look back and go, 'It happened, but I'm so lucky to be sitting where I am sitting...'

I don’t think there’s ever what could be called a "chilled state" in my head.

I've done all my tricks. I'm tired of myself.
