I'm a musician first, a food-lover second, a dirty mouth with feet, and a girl last time I checked.

For the most part, pianos are female to me. Sometimes they're dykes, and they're always good fun.

Women must understand that simply attacking or hating men is just another form of disempowerment. A woman has to realize that when she makes a man crawl it doesn't give her power.

Some of the most wonderful people are the ones who don't fit into boxes.
