Trying to force creativity is never good.

There's beauty everywhere. There are amazing things happening everywhere, you just have to be able to open your eyes and witness it. Some days, that's harder than others.

I spent a lot of years on the road, and what happens is you find out who your real friends are and you find out where your strengths and weaknesses lie in communication. I've had the same friends for 20 years now and I can count them on one hand.

Happiness is like a cloud, if you stare at it long enough, it evaporates.

It's a very romantic sentiment, but to think that you would die if you didn't write, well, I would definitely choose to not write and live.

Time is a beautiful thing. It's like when you meet an old lover on the street six years later and they don't look so ugly anymore.

I was trying to uphold what I thought feminism was as best I could by supporting women, by trying to create an opportunity to get women to get together, play music together and celebrate the fact that we are having great success making music on our own and together.

I would love to make my music and be completely anonymous, but that doesn't work. You can't have success and be faceless.

I think often sadness is a great place to get songs from.
