Music is my life, it is a reflection of what I go through.

• You can be around 100 people and be completely alone. People don't realize what it's really like.
• It was amazing to me that, all of a sudden, I was hearing my music on the radio and coming out of cars.
• I just need to know that I did the very best I could and that I was true to myself.
• I am not trying to change the world. I am just offering my gift that God gave me, and if somebody is moved by it, that's beautiful.
• Change is growth. For me it has been a very spiritual and musical rebirth.
• I always try to keep the circumstances in my life fresh. I like to change the physical environment I live in, change the people around me and try to experience things for the first time. I think that keeps one on their toes, creatively and spiritually.
• We're getting so pulled in by computers and technology, and our kids have their face in the computers all day. The human relationship is being diminished by this.
• People see my photos and think I labor over my image and I'm this cool, brooding artist. But I'm just having fun with it.
• For the last few years, it's been so chic for everybody to be miserable. Like if you're in with the cool crowd, you can't be happy.
• A dramatic thing, the first time you stand up to your dad.
