We're all going to change. Otherwise, it's boring.
I think you are who you are, and your kids will see who you are. So you'd better be a good person, because they are going to see it, and that's going to shape them. They are going to become you.
You've got to love what's yours.
I don't worry cause, everything's gonna be alright.
I find myself to be truly primal and passionate. Everything I do comes from a primal place.
If you treat me fairly, I'll give you all my goods.
Music is funny. I shouldn't even ever talk about music, because you can have all the ideas in your head, and it never goes exactly the way that you think it's gonna go.
I feel like the majority of the fear that I had or that we have we hold from other people. They're like people that we trust; they're their fears. All of a sudden we think that they're our fears.
How terrible would it have been if I had come out with some watered-down version of who I am? People fell in love with the real me, and I still feel blessed that that was how the journey began.
I have big everything on the bottom, but I love my legs. You've got to love what's yours.

There was no other path for me. I knew this was my path. I had to follow it.
Love me like you'll never see me again.
