- When you're writing, you can think that people care so much. Of course people care and wanna hear your music, but at the same time...I have this weird feeling like, nothing really matters. Everyone's thinking about themselves the most.
- It's not often you'll meet a female record executive or a female sound engineer or a lighting tech. Most women in the music industry are on stage singing, so I guess I'm a cliché in that sense!
- Some of the best, most romantic moments have an element of sadness to them I think. Maybe that's why they become so strong, because that piece of melancholy makes it...I don't know, maybe I'm a hopeless romantic in that sense. That part of me that was a teenager secretly smoking cigarettes outside my window, feeling super blue and heartbroken but still loving it, that person is still alive in me.
