I don't love performing, because it's nerve-racking and it's time - consuming to rehearse a whole set - and my time can often be better served writing music and just making it and putting it out.

Knowing now what goes into making a successful artist, it's disheartening.

I'm gonna live like tomorrow doesn't exist.

I'm an advocate of 'it's not what you are, it's who you are.'

I've got thick skin and an elastic heart.

I liked when I was naive and I thought it was just about making good music.

I get to sit at home with the dogs on the sofa, record in a closet in the office, send them off and, if I'm lucky, make a million dollars.

I may cry ruining my make up, Wash away all things you've taken.. I don't care if I don't look pretty, Big girls cry when their hearts are breaking.

I don't want to be famous, or recognizable.

People aren't honest about the horrors of fame. The downsides are so overwhelming that, for me, there is no payoff.

I'm sensitive and get easily upset and insulted.

What writing means to me?-Releasing my wolves...(Natasa Alina Culea)

Youth is an unrecoverable asset. Unless you are a hydra, lucky you.

Happiness is a necessity. It’s not a thing money can buy but a feeling that comes from within.

Triumph often is nearest when defeat seems inescapable.

Traveling takes a lot out of you.

Little is much, If love abides

The smallest of disciplines, practiced every day, start an incredible process that can change our lives forever.

My fortune somewhat resembled that of a person who should entertain an idea of committing suicide, and, altogether beyond his hopes, meet with the good hap to be murdered.

It often happens that I have an idea, but then I try to fill in the intermediate steps and find they don't work, so I have to give it up.

How can there be such anger in the minds of the gods?
