“You can write a book on how to ruin someone’s perfect day.”

“If you're horrible to me, I'm going to write a song about it, and you won't like it. That's how I operate.”

“You have people come into your life shockingly and surprisingly. You have losses that you never thought you’d experience. You have rejection and you have learn how to deal with that and how to get up the next day and go on with it.”

“Throughout all of the changes that have happened in my life, one of the priorities I've had is to never change the way I write songs and the reasons I write songs. I write songs to help me understand life a little more. I write songs to get past things that cause me pain. And I write songs because sometimes life makes more sense to me when it's being sung in a chorus, and when I can write it in a verse.”

“I realized that I have very long arms so I can take the perfect arm-length picture with fans”

“Everybody has that point in their life where you hit a crossroads and you've had a bunch of bad days and there's different ways you can deal with it and the way I dealt with it was I just turned completely to music.”

“i'm taking pictures in my mind so i can save them for a rainy day...”
