“I can turn heartbreak into songs that help other people”
“Heartbreak can definitely give you a deeper sensibility for writing songs. I drew on a lot of heartbreak when I was writing my first album, I didn't mean to but I just did.”
“Help anyway you can and don't turn away from people who help you.”
“If I can help somebody as I pass along...If I can cheer somebody with a word or song...Then my living shall not be in vain.”
“It was funny how heartbreak turned into great art.”
“The right song can turn an emperor into a laughingstock, can bring down dynasties.”
