“I’d say the best scents are ones that don’t overtake a room. I love things that remind me of the outdoors and home.”

I think my all time favourite song would be between ‘Slow Dancing in a Burning Room’ and ‘Dreaming with a Broken Heart’ by John Mayer.

I loved Nashville. I was amazed by the whole place.

I’m not just writing songs that are narrating my life, but everyone else around my age because they’re super-relatable.

You have to work the crowd.

I’m not a rapper.

Definitely, it’s hard being a young artist and being taken seriously.

I felt like there were so many talented people who should be getting what I have.

Just the fact that a thousand people in front of me were ready to hear me sing was one of the best feelings I can think of.

I really love listening to Hozier. He’s great.

I have songs about growing up, about ex-relationships – ex-relationship, I should say.

It’s amazing having so many people care so much about what I’m doing.

I carry around this little lion named Leo, which I’ve had for as long as I can remember.

I loved entertainment and acting, performing. I just liked the stage and having the spotlight and stuff.

I have a thing where if I’m not in control, I feel the whole world is about to collapse.

I don’t want to just be a teenage star. I want to be known by parents, and I want them to go, ‘Oh I love that song; he’s really good for his age. My daughter loves him, but I love him, too.’

People say to me, ‘What are you going to be doing in five years?’ The thing is, I don’t care! It’s what I’m doing today that matters.

The best plans of men and mice often go awry.

The best apology against false accusers is silence.

An honest man here lies at rest, the friend of man the friend of truth the friend of age and guide of youth. Few hearts like his with virtue warmed, few heads with knowledge so informed. If there’s another world, he lives in bliss. If there is none, he made the best of this.

Believe the best of everybody.

Nature is the greatest teacher and I learn from her best when others are asleep. In the still dark hours before sunrise God tells me of the plans I am to fulfill.

As the sun is best seen at his rising and setting, so men’s native dispositions are clearest seen when they are children, and when they are dying.

I feel everyone should feel empowered to live their best life.

Science that leads over the horizon depends on gathering the best minds and enabling them to do what the best minds naturally seek to do: pursue the most thrilling questions of the time.
