I don't really even go out that much now except to walk my dogs, because I don't want to be recognised.

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.

A woman is gentle, soft, delicate, and a man's position is to protect her, help her up stairs, make sure she's in the car safely first. Take good care of your woman, and the sky's the limit!

Laws can be wrong and laws can be cruel. And the people who live only by the law are both wrong and cruel.

I think when you spread the wealth around it's good for everybody.

Don't search for inspiration when you have a task to do; Just start your work and you will see that it will soon find you.

Growing up in a lower-income family, you don't have the resources to make ends meet and you have to find creative ways to get by.

Don't rebel against the mainstream only to conform to the underground.

Wit, after all, is a mighty tart, pungent ingredient, and much too acid for some stomachs; but honest good humor is the oil and wine of a merry meeting.
