"You've got two choices: you could either complain about it, or use it as fuel to make you a better person."
"There are no roadblocks, only springboards."
"We definitely aren't very good at staying in one place. There's not a domesticated bone in my body."
"I screwed up at a young age with my parents. They were very religious and they didn't really understand music. They didn't really listen to music. I went through a series of battles with them about why I loved music."
"Well, [bluntness in songwriting]'s a lot cheaper than therapy.... There's been a lot of things going on for the past 10 years that I just never really confronted, or used metaphors to do so. This time out I wanted to make sure that everyone knows what I'm talking about and where I'm coming from."
