I think women in pop have been declawed and defanged, and they're just meant to look pretty and sing pretty.

I just want to live my life a little freely and not adhere to any schedule - just make music and have fun.

I'm afraid of happy people. They're chemically unbalanced.

I was always embarrassed because my dad wore a suit and my mother wore flat pumps and a cozy jumper while my friends' parents were punks or hippies.

It's unhealthy for people to never express any kind of negativity or doubt. To have balance, you need to address that side of your thoughts as well as the positive. Otherwise, you tend toward crazy.

I wouldn't say that cutting was pleasurable, but there is a sense of euphoria that follows cutting yourself. The quick pinch of pain and the sight of blood snaps you back to the surface and you start to appreciate being alive.

I think young artists are always inspiring because they are coming at worlds from a different point of view.
