"dreaming of the person you want to be is wasting the person you already are."
"There's definitely some pieces in there that reflect on my personal life, but really, they aren't as personal as everybody thinks they are. I would like them to be more personal. The emotions, the songs themselves are personal. I can't do it - I've tried to write personally and it just doesn't seem to work. It would be too obvious. Some things that you could read in could fit into anyone's life that had any amount of pain at all. It's pretty cliche'."

"You do learn things and one of them is that happiness has nothing to do with validation from other people, the important thing is being happy with yourself ... finding something that is important to you and sticking with it no matter what anyone says. The truth is you've got to really be tough because there are all kinds of forces that are always trying to get you to do things their way ... trying to tell you that you are throwing your life away if you don't follow their advice."
"I'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I am not."
"I hate myself, and I want to die"
"Life is a waste of time and time is a waste of life, so let's all get wasted and have the time of our lives."
"Wanting to be someone else is a waste of who you are"
