It was a hard time for me to have a pure moment, to be present, to be here.

You make kingdoms and castles on your own.

I like that gathering moment where the music is about to begin, that moment right there. It's like jumping out of an airplane. It's that moment when the lights go out and then you're in it.

I've spent several years now with my head down.

Books stay with me and have shaped me and made huge impacts on my life.

I like surfing; I bring a surfboard with me on tour.

I don't really believe in palm readers and crystal balls and tarot cards, but I respond to the need for them.
