People want real. And there are a lot of women out there doing that.

Touring is my favorite part of being a musician. All the places I've traveled and lived affect me in many different ways. Good and bad.

Some people don't take me seriously, so I had to work harder.

I grew up always hanging out with boys, and I always wanted to play rock 'n' roll with boys, and so I've always acted kind of like a man.

I worked really hard to develop me as an artist and as a musician. I have so many different influences and play so many different instruments, I don't think anyone knew what to do with me!

The music I play and write is all reflective of myself and the experiences in my life. I feel like my whole journey is just collecting stories and songs along the way.

I think I have the best of both worlds because I am a woman, but I'm also a tomboy.

You should never judge a person solely by the evidence of your eyes.

Rise to become human again, my friend. Become the human, that talks humans, acts humans and lives human.

In this very special self-hypnotic state there can be no question of getting out of touch with on[e]self and floating into a normal sleep (unless you are very tired at the start)

From nine on I was forced to camp every summer. Not a volunteer. I played with the wrong kids so they made me go to camp to straighten me out.

Righteous ends, thus approved, absolve of guilt the most violent means.

If this is a real work for God it is a real conflict with Satan.

Kids and adults pay a price for too much tech, and it's not wholesale.

I have learned to acknowledge and appreciate the 98% that I have achieved instead of the 2% that I didn't.

What a joy is there in a good book, writ by some great master of thought, who breaks into beauty as in summer the meadow into grass and dandelions and violets, with geraniums and manifold sweetness.
