I don't really have time to sit down and write. But when I think of a melody, I call up my answering machine and sing it, so I won't forget it.

I'm usually all about the tight jeans and little T-shirt, but sometimes I want to put on a black, sequined dress and be a freaking girl

I like meeting all my fans and signing autographs, although it can all get a bit crazy. Yesterday, for example, a boy just came over and planted a big kiss on my face! I was like, 'Hello?'

Just because I look sexy on the cover of Rolling Stone doesn't mean I'm naughty.

I can't go anywhere without someone judging me.

Never doubt yourself. Never change who you are. Don't care what people think and just go for it.

I Know not everyone will like me, but this is who I am So if you don't like it, Tough!

You'll never see it my way, because you're not me!

I used to be a cool chick but I'm not anymore.

I don't like defining myself. I just am.

The cool thing about being famous is traveling. I have always wanted to travel across seas, like to Canada and stuff.

Climb the ladder of success, by always presenting your best self. Practice being exceptional at what you do.

Lobbyist influence comes from access, not money.

My guideline has always been to avoid a focus on me personally. Not because of any deep, dark secrets. Rather just a sense of privacy.

Years are like candy bars... We're paying more, but they're getting shorter.

Fear shuts off possibilities. The first thing that kicks in when you're reacting with fear... This is what I love about Roosevelt's quote, "There's nothing to fear but fear itself."

The voice that breathed o'er Eden, That earliest wedding day.

Whatever trips you make, you must still have nature in your eye.

I've had long hair, I've had short hair, and I've had in between hair... and its all good.

Faith, I am no such fool; everyone for himself in this desert of selfishness which is called life.

If somebody says they really like my playing I say thanks a lot
