It doesn’t bother me when people try to deconstruct my songs – because at least they’re looking at the lyrics, and paying attention to the way the story is told.
If you're lucky enough to be different, never change.
No matter what happens in life, be good to people. Being good to people is a wonderful legacy to leave behind.
Just be yourself, there is no one better.

Be that strong girl that everyone knew would make it through the worst, be that fearless girl, the one who would dare to do anything, be that independent girl who didn’t need a man; be that girl who never backed down.

I fought the idea of having security for a very long time, because I really value normalcy. I really do. I like to be able to take a drive by myself.
I like things that make me feel seven again. I don’t ever look down on people for the way they choose to have fun; it’s just not necessarily the way I like to have fun.
I think that what people always want is what they don’t have a lot of.
I’ve stopped reading the comments below news articles and on gossip blogs because those are the ones that’ll ruin your day in a second.
