I don’t buy a lot when I travel, but when I do, I like to send gifts from wherever I am. It’s fun to find the local post office.
David Ortiz is a genius. He’s incredible to watch. Over and over, he hits home runs that are simply transcendent.
I never really expected to win the hearts of the masses.
I find myself a fascinating subject.
I’m a damaged person, but I have hope and a will to not give up.
People make such a big deal about how people in bands look, especially if you’re a girl.
Although I’m a huge fan of Ben Kweller, I don’t think I’d cover one of his songs, simply because there’s just so much of my own stuff I wanna do.
I like visiting LA, but I wouldn’t want to live there.
The first kiss between two people is something really good in life.
When I did have a little bit of commercial success, it really didn’t suit my temperament at all. I’m a terrible public person.
The way I see it, all the popular singers are strippers.
I tend to fall for the archetypal, talented, charismatic rock boy.
Once I picked up an electric guitar, I lost interest in piano, and I just wanted to rock. I studied piano for so long, I got burned out on it.
Human relations, I mess them up, and they let me down.
I’m totally committed to the cause of individuality. That’s the only thing I stand by: independence.
I’ve been embarrassing myself publicly for over 20 years. Why should I stop now?
What happens when your dream comes true – when the spotlight is on and then it moves away?
I always believe that a person can learn so much by just jumping into something and trying to do it rather than having someone else teach you everything.
I can’t believe I got a major-label record deal. My music was quirky, and my voice was so odd and high and girlish, it was like a weird novelty act.
I don’t have anything to prove anymore. I don’t have a record deal, no one has any expectations, I’m in a position of freedom. I don’t need anyone’s approval.
