Music bypasses the intellect, it makes you laugh, makes you cry, makes you want to dance, makes you want to have sex.

I'm quite repulsed by the diva type.

I really, really love music. I'm affected by it and uplifted by it, and made to laugh and cry, and almost fall in love with the person who has made me feel so brilliant and communicated so profoundly to me.

I'm a hopeless mother; a hopeless wife; I have to try harder. I'm just a pathetic case history, really.

Life is a process of working out what's not working for you and disentangling yourself from it and trying then not walk into the same thing again. Watching your patterns and correcting them if you can.

Being a woman is really crap.

I absolutely hate Take That, East 17, the Spice Girls.
