When something goes into the world, you immediately begin to develop another perspective on yourself, another identity.

People who create art would be fools to assume they know exactly what people are going to think of it.

There's something to be said for being classically trained on piano, but not having your whole makeup be tied to one instrument.

I was in a Led Zeppelin cover band in high school, and my highlight was playing "Misty Mountain Hop" at a coffee house in Wayne, Pennsylvania. I wasn't allowed to play any instruments; I could only be the singer because I was a girl.

I like to hear what other people's interpretations are, because people come up with things I'd never thought about.

I truly believe that if you think something's stupid, that might mean it's actually good.

For me, it's really day to day. I don't really plan ahead and I like to be excited about what I'm wearing. Being on the road all the time, it's various articles of clothing that keep me inspired and feeling good. A fun or beautiful thing to wear can change your day. I think spontaneity and not adhering to any narrow styles keep me happy.
