I love music so much that I have to try to make my own music. And not copy music.

I tried to find myself and become a happy person without all the drugs and alcohol. And then I got back to Stockholm and I got pissed one night and had to sing.

When I did the vocals, I always became so angry and pissed off.

I'm inspired to keep on when people like what I do.

I was into hip-hop when I was a teenager. Then I started to look for samples, and I started a long Hendrix period - I liked the drums and the beats.

I let everyone have [the] space to do what they want, but I think I'm still a bit of a perfectionist.

When I played my own songs, I had to do everything myself to get it the right way, but now I think it's interesting to see how it becomes music.

At heart, women are creatures of darkness all the time.

As I grow through love, so grows my joy, ever more present, ever more constant.

Las Vegas, the most expensive toilet in the world that still can’t flush.

I just live life. I grew up in a Christian family, but, you know, the way Mom brought me up is to, you know, do you, to always be yourself.

Art is man determined to die sane.

Ideologies, however appealing, cannot shape the whole structure of perceptions and conduct unless they are embedded in daily experiences that confirm them.

So poetry, which is in Oxford made An art, in London only is a trade.

You are never too young to lead.

Limitation is essential to authority. A government is legitimate only if it is effectively limited.
