I'm a boots girl. I always wear boots. They only look better when they get dirty.

I wear whatever makes me comfortable on stage, so that I feel confident. Some days it's a plaid skirt with a button-up and other days it's jeans with a hockey jersey and platforms.

I like writing different types of music. I don't like being stuck into one thing.

I hate being forced to do things. I hate people telling me what to do, so I'll do the complete opposite. It's a bit self-destructive sometimes.

Dreams do come true. They definitely do come true. It just takes a while, I guess. Sometimes it doesn't, but for me it did, anyway.

I feel like I didn't know who I was when I was 15. I don't feel like you're who you are for life, not even when you're 20.

I wanted to try something different. Most people my age go off to college; I thought I'd try out New York.

I didn't grow up in a regular upbringing. I ended up at my grandmother's house past a certain age, so I took care of things myself. I moved out of home when I was 16.

I hate when people call me a socialite because you have to have money to be a socialite, which I don't have.

How could you know what it feels like to fight the hounds of hell?

I'm pretty sarcastic, and sometimes that doesn't come across on the Internet. It seems I'm being rude or stupid.

I don't believe an accident of birth makes people sisters or brothers. It makes them siblings, gives them mutuality of parentage. Sisterhood and brotherhood is a condition people have to work at.

Let us embrace, and from this very moment vow an eternal misery together.

I am just one human being.

Envy is so natural to human kind, that it cannot but arise.

The impatient man is his own enemy; he slams the door on his own progress.

Are we all living like this? Two lives, the ideal outer life and the inner imaginative life where we keep our secrets?

I often ask students: 'Is this what you would show Tom Ford?' and they say: 'No, we'd have done more work' or 'We'd have dressed better.' So I say: 'Why don't you do that here?'

It holds no fear for her now, because the shark has been tamed by the soul of a boy. No--the soul of a man.

Now I think all of us were born with a hole in our hearts, and we go around looking for the person who can fill it. You... you fill me up.
