Girls are crazy and mean. They don't fight fair.

And I really wanted a driver's license. I was 43, had my learner's permit and had failed the test once already - but that was in Riverhead, on Long Island.

I still consider myself a feminist.

I fingerpick a lot because I can get more of a range of feeling from the guitar than I can when I bash away with a pick.

I like to write about things that are extreme in some form. I like to write about something I feel I have to write about.

Some girls are taught to be sexy.

I had some fears as a kid, but I was also relatively fearless. Maybe that's a result of living half the time in reality and the other half in fantasy.
