When you are missing someone, time seems to move slower, and when I'm falling in love with someone, time seems to be moving faster.

The world doesn’t owe you anything. You have to work for everything you get and you have to appreciate every bit of success the world gives you.

Real love still happens sometimes. It's not just something we make up when you're nine. I have to believe that. You do too.

Listening to my songs is like reading my diary.

Sophistication isn't what you wear and who you know.

People like music when they're in love, but they don't need it as much. You need music when you're missing someone or you're pining for someone or you're forgetting someone or you're trying to process what just happened.

I just kind of live a life, and I let all the gossip live somewhere else. If you go too far down the rabbit hole of what people think about you, it can change everything about who you are.
