I wasn't ready to write my own songs when I was in my early 20s. I'm still growing but I definitely grew because of my experiences on the road and in the studio.

I think music is a very personal thing and it doesn't necessarily have to be experienced one way or another, but the album experience is a completely different thing than the single experience.

I was lucky enough to just play music as a living and not have a nine-to-five job. I didn't have to pay the bills so I was able to experiment.

I think everything you do in your life affects you creatively. Especially in music, if you do another thing musical.

You have the ability to choose your reactions.

The only difference between a grown-up's mistake and a child's is the size of the consequence.

Across the sea of space, the stars are other suns.

We all naturally want to become successful... we also want to take shortcuts. And it's easy to do so, but you can never take away the effort of hard work and discipline and sacrifice.

I used to sit in school and dream about getting into films.

To be a good kisser start slow, definitely ramp into it and remember somebody's on the other side of your mouth!

If you tell a lie long enough, it becomes the truth.

Fame is fickle, and I know it. It has its compensations but it also has its drawbacks, and I've experienced them both.

A police state is a country run by criminals

Peace will be victorious.
