I think a lot of artists go waving their Grammies around thanking God for their Grammy, but when it comes to a pitch battle in the street for the honor of God, none of them is anywhere to be found.

I understand that we are actually complicated people but we are also dreadfully simple.

I really believe that God and religion is two different things.

If you really ever love someone, that doesn't go away, although you wish it would.

I think there's a lot that's beautiful about religion and very inspiring, obviously, but I do think that God needs to be rescued from religion actually.

I am someone who really does believe very strongly in the Holy Spirit. I feel I'm someone who, since I was a very, very small child, of being engaged in a very strong relationship with the Holy Spirit.

I don't want any man to have control over me.
