Some combinations of people are toxic, you know? You have to find the right one that isn't just going to explode into fiery ash and destruction.

I grew up on a Christmas tree farm with all this space to run around, and the [freedom] to be a crazy kid with tangled hair.

You pay for good days by then having bad days. You pay for joy with pain.

There's a kind of bad that gets so overpowering you can't even talk about it.

As soon as I accomplish one goal, I replace it with another one. I try not to get too far ahead of myself. I just say to myself, 'All right, well, I'd like to headline a tour,' and then when I get there, we'll see what my next goal is.
