Love, anger, depression, joy and dreams. ...And Zeppelin. Totally.

Somebody asked me what I wanted to do. I just said I wanted to…just to give back to it what it’s given me. And to meet all the other people that are doing it…just to be in the world, really.

I just want to have a completely adventurous, passionate, weird life.

I have no advice for anybody; except to, you know, be awake enough to see where you are at any given time, and how that is beautiful, and has poetry inside. Even places you hate.

If you feel blocked, do not turn to others, but look inside, in silence, for the enemy of your progress.

love is not a victory march, it's a cold and it's a broken hallelujah.

I love anything that haunts me...and never leaves

When all of this music sounds like you know what you want to say, then it will have been of all worth, ever. You will be something complete unto yourself, present and unique.

There's the moon asking to stay long enough for the clouds to fly me away

Too young to hold on and too old to just break free and run

A tune has to resonate with whatever is happening around it.

Denying emotion is not avoiding the high curbs, it's never taking your car out of the garage. It's safe in there, but you'll never go anywhere.

Then it was silent. Heavy now, not the sleepy silence of before. The kind of silence that meant horrifying things.

Leadership is something I was born with.

I realized that I might not ever make it as a writer, that it might be because I wasn't good enough, or that it might be because the odds were just too long.

I don't envisage I will be captain again, but for two England managers, Steve McClaren and Fabio Capello, I was their first choice and I'm proud of that.

Every man should be capable of all ideas.

I am absolutely not a roll-on-stage kind of girl! I would be totally freaked out if I didn't warm up, and I don't know how other singers do it.

...love must be regarded as one of the religious and dangerous experiences, because it lifts people out of the arms of reason and sets them afloat with no ground under their feet.

Body of earth, don't talk of earth Tell the story of pure mirrors The Creator has given you this splendor-- Why talk of anything else?

I always think about what I missed, and I think that was my driving force - never be satisfied with what I've done.
