The fact that Cornish exists at all is just incredible as is the work that people are doing down there, it's such an important part of who people are.

That you've got to do anything that you feel is precious. I especially believe that about cultures and languages. You've got to be really conscious because time is running out.

I find it strange that there isn't more of a melting pot of language within the pop charts. I feel it becomes really two dimensional when everything's in English.

You use your money to buy privacy because during most of your life you aren't allowed to be normal.

The world that is a book is devoured bya reader who is a letter in the world's text; thus a circular metaphor is created for the endlessness of reading; We are what we read.

It’s not really pressure, unless you’re not prepared.

We can't control what other people do and how they treat us, but we can control our response to them.

Embrace an effortless a-line silhouette in the seasons must have indigo shades.

I mean, its hard to be an actor in the city - trying to make it as an actor - because you waitress all night, you get home really late and you're super tired and your feet hurt.

I've always listened to jazz or folk or blues. I was always listening to the prophets. I don't really go for...I don't know how to say anything about the singles scene without slamming people.
