Money can't buy you back the love that you had then

Don't ever call a guy first. The thing they want the most is whatever they can't have. It sounds really juvenile, but it works.

My first memory of loving music happened so early. We would always go to the beach in the summer and I would run from blanket to blanket, from family to family and just sing Lion King songs acapella.

I'm perpetually single. Being alone is not the same as being lonely. I like to do things that glorify being alone. I buy a candle that smells pretty, turn down the lights, and make a playlist of low-key songs. If you don't act like you've been hit by the plague when you're alone on a Friday night, and just see it as a chance to have fun by yourself, it's not a bad day.

A song is a favorite song, not because the singer can hit and hold a high note, but because of the words, their meaning.

When you see something bad happening out in the world, you should try to help in whatever way you can.

You have to not only live your life in spite of people who don't understand you, you have to have more fun than they do.
