I'm not the Queen. I'm not a huge superstar; I don't get paparazzi around me.

There aren't many poster children for cool angst. Everybody thinks it's cool if you're the bad girl.

I really don't think anything I do is a mistake. It could be if I didn't learn from it.

It's calm under the waves in the blue of my oblivion.

If I respect myself and believe in what I'm doing, no one can touch me.

Rape is the most humiliating thing that can be done to you; it's the most vulnerable that you can be. But once I realized that, I became a stronger person and faced all my fears.

Nothing that you do will ever feel good if you let people convince you that you have no choice.

Everybody sees me as this sullen and insecure little thing. Those are just the sides of me that I feel it's necessary to show because no one else seems to be showing them.

The way I feel about music is that there is no right and wrong. Only true and false.

You fondle my trigger, then you blame my gun

I was screaming into the canyon at the moment of my death; the echo I created outlasted my last breath.

When I write, I disturb. When I show a film, I disturb. When I exhibit my painting, I disturb, and I disturb if I don't. I have a knack for disturbing.

Nature is not a place to visit. It is home.

I have had a lot of blessed, interesting things happen to me and have bumped up against some amazing people.

I love 'Anne of Green Gables.' I have for years. That's one of my favourite things. She's such a can-do kind of girl; that's why I'm crazy about her.

I have a really analytical approach to art. And the whole idea that you can't analyze what makes a joke funny...I do not agree with that at all.

Watched Star Wars in 77 and that's when I got into watching films. I was just blown away by it.

Nature meant me A wife, a silly, harmless, household dove, Fond without art, and kind without deceit.

Give a pup a home and a little love and he will give you his heart forever.

Sometimes, all it takes is a few words to change your life.

I'm celebrated for celebrating the uncelebrated.
