I'm not looking to be an artist to make money. I'm looking to be an artist.

I'm young. You can't just sit there and be satisfied.

I don't really start writing until later in the night. I'm a night owl.

Acting becomes my real job, writing becomes my second job, and then when I turn 50, I think I'm going to open up an interior decorating company.

I have a thing - I call it magic - but I feel like I can write stuff down in the middle of the night and wake up and it happens. I write what I want in my journal.

I'm going to become a real professional actress.

I'm more than a songwriter. I'm a creative person. Some people you just always see. I won't allow you to see me unless it makes sense. There's a reason to see me.

I try to reach for the stars because if you say you want something small and it happens, you don't believe it. So I try to say something wild and crazy.

I just like to stay creative. Anything that can keep my mind going.

I'm a songwriter who just wants to bring people great songs.

I always tell people I write songs, but I'm a writer. It's a difference. I can write songs to music, but I can write a story. I can see ideas spark in me.

Glittering generalities! They are blazing ubiquities.

I'm very conscious that people dear to me are alive in my imagination - poets in particular.

I never wanted to write a book, and people have asked me for years to do it.

If we define Futurism as an exploration beyond accepted limits, then the nature of limiting systems becomes the first object of exploration.

All is flux, nothing is stationary.

It's funny how a film about a murderous old English toff can help you.

My relationship with Northeast Ohio is bigger than basketball. I didn't realize that four years ago. I do now.

I'm a little fatigued of adults saying we've got to worry about the kids. And these are the same adults that don't know science and are running things and wielding resources and legislation.

The conception of background music is changing. You use less and less of it these days.
