I think that it's our responsibility to create a world in which girls can grow up and not have to limit their dreams or possibilities.

I did go through this period where girls would be mean and I had a lot of guy friends. But I've found as an adult the importance of having female and male friends.

I'm not really that interested in pandering to an audience of people that are going to judge me before they hear me. If they hear it and don't like it, that's totally fine.

I mean, the idea that it might help somebody out or help somebody make the decision to become a stewardess or otherwise... No, that's one of the nice things about making music or making movies, is that art does have the power to affect people. I feel really privileged to be a part of that.

I'm not cynical about love at all. I'm very practical. I think love takes up a lot of time.

Everyone has the heartbreak that shapes them in a way that they could never go back to the innocence that they had before.

I like a lot of old films, I like a lot old music, and a lot of it has to do with the fact that I like the idea of knowing what happens before, so that I can understand it.
