I feel like my dating life has become a national pastime, and Im not comfortable providing that entertainment anymore.

It's pretty unhealthy to obsess over what people think about you.

I want to build a life with someone that's based on their dreams as well as my dreams. I think that the idea of finding another person to share with is the most fascinating, beautiful quest you could ever be on in life.

Words are everything to me. Words can build you up and feel so good. On the flip side, words can absolutely demolish you.

We should love, not fall in love, because everything that falls, gets broken.

I've made sure that in any situation and with any record label, I'm allowed to write my own music.

I love it when people say things to me in public and want to meet me, because I want to meet them! Early on, my manager told me, 'If you want to sell 500,000 records, then go out there and meet 500,000 people.'
