Life didn't promise to be wonderful.

The majority of my audience has always been women.

Nothing in my songs is disrespective.

If you can't move the audience, they don't want you.

It gets harder and harder to make sure your public understands you're a sensitive human being, but I am sensitive. I don't like to be hurt.

Far and away the best prize that life has to offer is the chance to work hard at work worth doing.
