While I wanted to be supportive of Kanye [west] on the phone call, you cannot 'approve' a song you haven't heard. Being falsely painted as a liar when I was never given the full story or played any part of the song is character assassination.

I think the words you stop yourself from saying are the ones that will haunt you the longest.

I like organizing things. I like organizing my closets, so that I know where everything is. And and I used to color code it.

I've gotten into this nasty habit of running away from love, but maybe one day I can find the exception to that.

so i sneak out to the garden to see you, we keep quiet 'cause we're dead if they knew, so close your eyes, escape this town for a little while.

I have so many indie bands on my iPod. What I don't really understand is the attitude that if a band is unknown, they're good, and if they get fans, then you move on to the next band.

Factoring in millions of people when I'm writing a song is not a good idea. I don't ever do it.
