I am quite competitive. In stupid things like card games.

If I don't have an outlet in which to express myself...throug h songwriting or other mediums...I get a bit jittery.

A friend is a friend forever And a good one will never leave, never

I'm a bit of a magpie: whatever I see or hear or read feeds into the songs.

Oh! To not need cognitive justification for every single thing. Wouldn't that be a life?

I was an incredibly misanthrope. I couldn't relate to people my age, and I'm not sure why, as I wasn't particularly smart or interesting

I feel sometimes that I'm in a constant state of being lost in translation, and I guess that why I write songs.

Womanhood is something you don't consider until it hits you.

Age is relative. Experience is relative. And I think often intensity is confused with maturity.

No one starts playing my kind of music to make a fortune. But I do want to keep doing what I do and I do want to continue selling records. And I would, eventually, quite like some money.

I know my vision is impaired and cannot be trusted with even the simplest tasks, much less dating. Not that I´ve come within talon distance of a man.

Surround yourself with family and treasure your time together. Family aren’t always blood. They’re the people in your life who want you in theirs

I always wanted to write poetry, even when I was very young.

I don't have to try to be perfect because I know that my fans like me for who I am. They like me because I am weird and kind of funky, but still really calm.

People communicate in Twittering ways. I've learned how to do that.

I'd like to grow old with my face moving.

I think that all bodies are beautiful in millions of different ways but I get down on myself too!

Most Muslims don't obey the order of god to kill infidels. This is why I say Muslims have more morality than their god.

I am not a wolf in sheep's clothing, I'm a wolf in wolf's clothing.

Attention is the intention to live without reservation in the here-and-now.
