Words can break someone into a million pieces, but they can also put them back together

The only one who's got enough of me to break my heart.

I love conversations with kids in the meet and greet lines — little people with little voices! I love babies. Someday I would love to be a parent, but I want that time to come when I’ve experienced so much of the world. My life will be devoted to making that child’s life as wonderful, beautiful, magical and perfect as it can possibly be. I want to wait until there is no ounce of me left that has anything self-centered to experience.

I'm intrigued and drawn to people who know exactly who they are, who know what they want, who live life on their own terms.

I've been careful in love. I've been careless in love. And I've had adventures I wouldn't trade for anything.

I wrote a song called 'Red' and thinking about what that song means to me and all the different emotions on this album they're all pretty much about the tumultuous, crazy, insane, intense, semi-toxic relationships I've experienced in the last two years. All those emotions fanning from intense love, intense frustration, intense jealousy, confusion, all of that in my mind, all those emotions are red. There's nothing in between, there's nothing beige about those feelings and so I called my record that.

Appreciate what you have while you have it and the beauty in what’s there right now and try to preserve it for tomorrow.
