For someone so conflicted, who am I to give advice to anybody? It’s such a funny, grandiose idea

Hands up if you’re ready to do something you’ll regret this weekend. Go forth! You have my blessing.

I think I should get a bigger between-the-song persona, so then I'm not wandering around the stage like some mad old auntie that's saying hello to people and falling over.

When I'm singing I'm always trying to get to the highest point possible. I'd fly to the top of Buckingham Palace to sing to the queen.

I like a house party and fancy dress, a big fan of fancy dress, like dress up, costume parties.

I try to maintain a healthy dose of daydreaming, to remain sane.

Having a soul, they say, is like taking sadness and turning it into something beautiful.

If you do something with your whole heart and it's a mistake, you can live with that.

I like the idea of not being afraid of letting your imagination rule you, to feel the freedom of expression, to let creativity be your overwhelming drive rather than other things.

Sometimes I find that music is so much more attractive than love. I don’t know… It’s like some kind of euphoria, that love can’t bring to you.

You should have high expectations for yourself and others should come second.

Honor your relationships by developing listening skills.

Repent means to renounce sin . . .and by God’s grace to fill my mind with things that honor Him.

When I'm writing, I make words my b*tch. But when I'm editing, the words make me their b*tch. It all equals out in the end.

As rust corrupts iron, so envy corrupts man.

I have trouble with direction, because I have trouble with authority. I was not a good Marine.

Man is the being whose project it is to be God.

I got every Dan Shaughnessy book known to man.

I never think of the time I have lost. I just carry out a programme because it's there. It's mapped out for me.

It amazes me how much of what passes for knowledge in cancer therapy turns out to be incomplete, inadequate, and anecdotal.
