I love to be alone with life. I love to study simple things: the light as it filters in a window; the music of a room full of people chatting; a horizon.

On my own I generally have very messy hair, wear jeans and sneakers.

Being part of the natural world reminds me that innocence isn't ever lost completely; we just need to maintain our goodness to regain it.

I love playing big rooms. There's nothing like it. It's a power trip.

In the end only kindness matters.

I may not be able to pull on the smallest of holds, but those I can pull on I can pull on all day long.

Live your life with love and bravery and you shall lead a life uncommon.

I consider myself a product of Alaska. The love and the debt that I feel to my home state, you always want your hometown to be the proudest of you.

I'm becoming more and more myself with time. I guess that's what grace is. The refinement of your soul through time.

Reality is what you believe it to be. It's what you put your thought and energy into, because your hands physically manifest thought. So your world becomes what you feel and what you think.

I don't see the world unless I see it in ink.

Don't let someone feel like they are following you and don't let yourself feel like you are following someone.

Love and wisdom are guides towards awakening.

My mom got 11 kids. We struggled.

Its so real out here right now, the only reason why you see anything is cuz I got the flash on.

If you see me up there on the stand smiling, I'm lost!

The abuse of power takes happiness away.

You sleep with a man, that's your husband. So make sure before you lay down, you love him.

To be prejudiced is always to be weak

Civilization runs a greater risk if we maintain our present attitude to religion than if we give it up.

I make a living doing what I love doing, and it's what brings me joy.
