You can spend so much time wanting someone and they can have absolutely no idea.

Where is the video of Kanye [West] telling me he was going to call me 'that b***h' in his song? It doesn't exist because it never happened. You don't get to control someone's emotional response to being called 'that b***h' in front of the entire world.

I write songs that are like diary entries. I have to do it in order to feel sane.

I don't compete with other people in the industry, I compete with myself.

We don't wish for the easy stuff. We wish for big things. Things that are ambitious, out of reach.

I love dresses, and I've definitely thought about designing them someday. I just want to make sure that I wait until the time is perfect and I can do it right.

Every single one of the guys that I've written songs about has been tracked down on MySpace by my fans.
