You should love yourself.
I pity you all... Most of you will die---scratch that---ALL of you.
I want to be a vampire. They're the coolest monsters.
Shut up and let me see your jazz hands
I had a couple of really cool friends when I was a kid, and we'd find cool music and movies and show them to each other. My friend Dennis had a copy of 'A Clockwork Orange' and he'd already seen it once, and he was like, 'We need to watch this.' I was sleeping over his house - and I think we were literally 15 - and we watched it.
My music is - I don't want to say my main focus, but it's what comes most naturally to me.
You are gorgeous, whether you're a size 4 or 14. It doesn't matter what you look like on the outside, as long as you're a good person, as long as you respect others.
I learned that the world doesn't want to be saved, and it will f**king punch you in the face if you try.
We've always wanted to give something back to our fans, and to play the kind of shows we know they want to see, ... And we really think this tour is exactly that.
When I was writing it, I was remembering how hard it was to be a 16-year-old in high school. I always wanted to be an artist, so I was this loner kid who just got drunk all the time. I only had one real friend. There was a girl I really liked, and she ended up taking really sleazy photographs with her boyfriend, and that really crushed me, I was just swimming in this pit of despair, jealousy and alcoholism.
