I'm just being the artist that I would have loved if I was a child.

I'm not going to say I'll never rock with a band, because I'm too much of a fan of the aesthetic of a great band. But a girl group? Not again.

Major labels limit you, but I also learned my tricks from getting around that.

At a label, you are confined to the team you have, but I did all my solo work myself, and that makes you more agile and able to go into weirder corners.

I grew up in the dance school my mother owned, and I see everything in body shapes, everything visual.

I have been doing choreography my whole life, and it's so important to make that marriage between music and the body.

I've only covered a few songs because I feel that if you're not going to go beyond the original artist in some way, then don't disrespect what they created.

I've always been an outsider kid. But I had always wanted to be in a group - growing up, I loved bands like the Cranberries and K's Choice.

I've learned that you only become as creative as you possibly can by staying independent.

I always thought music was open to all things.

We get discouraged sometimes when people look at surface only and neglect the message.

*I’m hustling* is a low self-esteem having man’s way of saying *I’m unemployed, * when answering a seemingly materialistic woman’s question as to what he does for a living.

The zoo grounds reeked of desolation, but the silence had an undercurrent, a silvery vibe, like the hush of a concert hall just before the first note.

If you don't break your ropes while you're alive, do you think ghosts will do it after?

My paintings are not about what is seen. They are about what is known forever in the mind.

Life is empty. Life is worthless. When we take a life, we aren't taking anything of value.- Durzo Blint

A good chaos theory means you have a disciplined strategy behind the scenes of how you're going to roll out policy. And then you do it in a way that inflicts chaos on the press and your opponents.

Finding the right subject is the hardest part.

No eulogy is due to him who simply does his duty and nothing more.

You have to be a little aware of the emotions of the people who have invested with you.

Human life is limited, but knowledge is limitless. To drive the limited in pursuit of the limitless is fatal; and to presume that one really knows is fatal indeed!
