When you're growing up, I think there's this idea that the coolest people are the ones who are really rude and feverish. But I've come to realize that isn't cool.

Everyone's just a freak, but some people are trying to hide it and some people embrace it.

I really don’t care what people think.

I have a dark side. I think everyone does.

Live in the moment. Feel everything you want to feel. And maybe have a couple of drinks if you're nervous, I guess.

I want to have tampons as merch that say ‘Periods are punk.'

Vivienne Westwood really inspires me. I love her punk ethos.

When I first started, I wasn't really aware of anything in the industry or aware of who I really was. I just put my music out there and tried to get as many people to hear it as possible.

A good song can make you smile, or it can make you dance or laugh or remind you of a moment.

I like the whole laid-back rapping. I wish I could rap! I wish I could wrap like Azealia Banks or Lil Wayne or someone like that.

I see music in colours. I love music that's black, pink, purple or red - but I hate music that's green, yellow or brown.

You can't be too comfortable. I have to keep pushing myself to be a better fighter every step of the way.

The important thing is Burma needs to end the civil war and for this to happen both sides must want to end the war.

The only position that leaves me with no cognitive dissonance is atheism.

I didn't really escape that gravity until I moved 300 miles south to go to college at 18, where authorship no longer seemed something liable to induce vengeful punishment.

The fullness of life is only accessible in the present moment.

Remember, if people talk about you behind your back, it only means you are two steps ahead of them.

I paint not the things I see but the feelings they arouse in me.

Our conjectures pass upon us for truths; we will know what we do not know, and often, what we cannot know: so mortifying to our pride is the base suspicion of ignorance.

I started Dell 28 yrs ago with $1000. Revenues in 1984 were $6 million. Last year $62.1 billion. Impossible is nothing.

My country has been very good to me; I must be good to my country.
