Love is the most important thing in life. If you don't have (a relationship), you're always looking for one.

There's a lot of integrity with musicians; you really still aspire to grow, and be great, to be the best version of yourself you can be.

I was turned down by every record label in L.A. Perseverance is three quarters of the game. Talent's only a quarter. Being able to withstand the word 'no' over and over can build you a pretty tough skin. I knew if I just kept at it, at the very least I'd get better at my craft.

The bands that wrote the big, heroic rock songs - I really wanted to make a record like that.

If you want to turn on your boyfriend, get naked and strap on an accordion.

Are you strong enough to be my man?

I used to jog every day and call it my 'gratitude run.' I'd make my gratitude list as I ran. I never ran out of things to be grateful for. My knees aren't what they used to be, but I still do my gratitude list every day.
