It's not our job to make people like us if they don't.

I felt like my favorite writers have almost musical hooks in their work, whether it's poetry or a hook at the end of a chapter that makes you want to read the next one. And I think that my favorite writers definitely have something musical about what they do, in saying something so relatable and universal and so simple.

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

I would like to do a duet with Taylor Hanson, because I have loved Hanson since I was 8.

All of my walls are covered with framed pictures of my friends.

I need that unexplainable spark. I need to see someone and feel 'oh-oh'. It's only happened a few times in my life.

I keep going back to love when I write songs because I can't figure it out.
