Only dumb people are happy.
Being a rock widow is not my job, so I would hire people to do it for me.
My mentors are people like Cameron Crowe and Carrie Fisher.
There's not a lot of people expressing anger in the culture. They're expressing a lot of hyper-exaggerated sexuality.
I listen to too many people. I'm only going to listen to my gut for the rest of my life.
For people considering suicide, it is bullshit. Endure the moment.
Don't be bitter and mean 'couse you don’t fit in, it’s a GIFT. Look at you. you’ve got your individuality, you don’t have the herd instinct, you can read Neitzsche and understand it. Only dumb people are happy.
I wish people would just like me for what I am, the singer in an OK new wave band.
It's very hard to describe to people sometimes the way I grew up, because it wasn't like my parents were irresponsible. They weren't necessarily reckless, but they were bringing all types of energy into the house, all kinds of people.
