It's my personal perspective that you live as hard and as vigorously as you can.

No matter what it is, you're going to have the bad days, but if you have hope throughout, you won, no matter what the results, Life is so beautiful.

No matter how organized your ducks are, life can turn on 2 seconds. So, you can't keep on waiting. Because, if you keep on waiting, it's gone.

I want people to know that the fight is worth it.

Everything bad that's ever happened in my life I've seen an outcome that's positive later on.

My goals are something I believe in, because I believe I'm going to make it.

I might not have the ability to ever carry a child and I have this damn bag for the time being – but I'm alive.

My big goal in life is to prove people wrong.

I think people get lost in becoming someone other then themselves when they spend too much time in the presence of those who don't bring out the best in them.

It's always been a gift with me, hearing music the way I do. I don't know where it comes from, it's just there and I don't question it.

I thought religion would eventually wither away and we'd all be worshiping at the altar of science.

Personally, I like the social novel. I like writing that gets in and under the hood and looks about - at what's going on. But I don't say to any writer that that's absolutely what they should do.

Elizabeth Barrett Browning could write a poem two pages long. Could she have brought it to a music publisher?

It's important to be fit, but you shouldn't get too skinny. You need to have curves.

Not by wrath does one kill, but by laughter.

Drink to forget; don't forget to drink.

Men such as they are, very naturally seek money or power; and power because it is as good as money.

It's hard to start and think about having balance. Music is a tough industry, and you have to work your way to that luxury.
