People say you don’t know what you’ve got till it’s gone, but the truth is you just never thought you’d ever lose it.

Songs are my diaries; they always have been. You have to put your trust in everyone because putting down those real, personal details and thoughts that make a song authentic also opens you right up. I am constantly misunderstood; a lot of people just don't get me.

I keep going back to love when I write songs because I can't figure it out.

I do write nice songs about the guys who are nice to me! Eventually, I'm sure one of them will write a response - that's a pretty scary concept, actually! But I make sure I only write bad songs about the ones who deserve it.

Feel good about being someone who loves selflessly. I think someday you’ll find someone who loves you the exact same way.

I think that as you grow up, as you get older, we can't get bitter, we can't get jaded.

It's possible to climb to the top without stomping on other people.
