I think I have to trust that you end up with the person you're supposed to end up with, and that everything in between is there to teach you stuff.

I wanted us to have a friendly relationship [with Kanye West]. He promised to play the song for me, but he never did.

My favorite thing in life is writing about life, specifically the parts of life concerning love. Because as far as I’m concerned, love is absolutely everything.

I’ve learned that you can’t predict [love] or plan for it. For someone like me who is obsessed with organization and planning, I love the idea that love is the one exception to that. Love is the one wild card.

I feel the emotion that life conjures up and the songs I write get me closer to my feelings and realising who I am. It's a natural process.

I haven't had that one great love, which is good. I don't want that to be in the past - I want it to be in the future.

If something happens to me, you're going to hear about it. I only know how to write songs about my life.
