Factoring in millions of people when I'm writing a song is not a good idea. I don't ever do it.

I'm Taylor, I'm 11 and I want a record deal.

There are two ways you can go with pain: You can let it destroy you or you can use it as fuel to drive you.

Style is such a personal thing; it's your way to be an individual.

People like music when they're in love, but they don't need it as much. You need music when you're missing someone or you're pining for someone or you're forgetting someone or you're trying to process what just happened.

In the future, artists will get record deals because they have fans-not the other way around...The only memento 'kids these days' want is a selfie. It's part of the new currency, which seems to be 'how many followers you have on Instagram'.

For some reason, I'm really comfortable talking about my personal life in songs.
