I'm going to go out on tour when I feel like going on tour.

Truth is, I cut my hair for freedom, not for beauty.

Lately though I've been in love with myself and I've become my own best friend.

I think everything that happens in life we're prepared for in ways we really don't really know.

I have epiphanies all the time, because I'm always thinking. I'm a thinker. I'm always writing poetry, I'm always coming to conclusions.

I like Bloomingdales, and I like a store called Scoop.

If you want to put out a song that you wrote yesterday tomorrow, go on Twitter, type in a new URL, and give it to the people!

God is in control and knowing that at the end of the day what happens - whether I'm comfortable with it or not or afraid of it or not - that God is in control.

I used to be so afraid to say what I really think.

I rarely do things based on what everybody else is doing; I never have.

When you're an artist you're speaking about life, you're talking about your experience here on the planet. So essentially, that's what I do when I'm writing songs.

People ugly from ignorance and broken from being poor.

You can have anything you want so long as you realise that you can't have everything you want.

Who says there's just one safe way to walk, one road properly lit, and the rest - all slippery water, unmarked?

Humans have too many rights and not enough responsibilities.-Aras

I was lucky enough to have been born on this planet earth, in this admirable country of the United States of America.

A short retirement urges a sweet return.

We’re all born idiots, and we only get over that condition as we get less young.

Theatre audiences can't be made to think and cry: at best, they can be made to think and laugh, or to feel and cry.

I'm not a creature of habit. I like to find things from unexpected sources.

If there is a sense of reality, there must also be a sense of possibility.
