“Dollhouse was definitely inspired by the whole Edward Scissorhands vibe where all of the houses are perfect, but inside each home there are very messed up families.”

Just wanna be held once in a Blue Moon.

I’m obsessed with the venue and the people so it’s going to be really fun.The last couple of tours I didn’t have anything like that because of the budget, so I’m super excited because this is really going to bring the album to life.

Love starts inside of you.

Just because I’m an artist doesn’t mean I should be treated differently.

I think the transition between singing covers on a reality show to being able to do my own thing was really exciting. I’m no longer singing covers every second, and people are actually getting to hear my own original music.

I’m pretty excited for people to listen to the story of each song. It’s definitely like a giant book with different stories in it. They are all very child-like but also a balance between light and dark.

If you can’t handle a heart like mine, don’t waste your time with me.

I definitely fall in love quickly, and I’m very in love with being in love. But it is hard for me to write about love.

Everyone wants to be good but good is only what we’re taught to perceive.

Life boils down to two paths, love and fear. Which will you choose?

I just don’t really get to watch a lot of movies, like recently at least I haven’t been able to but I did watch The Exorcist for the first time ever, recently, and it didn’t scare me like I thought it was gonna scare me.

I’m insane, I’m emotional, but I’d rather be that than a robot. So that’s definitely something that I wanted to get out there. Especially with Cry Baby’s story, because the album is about Cry Baby but I realized that me and her went through the same change.

Just as quick as you receive my magic, I can take it away.

I’m gonna write from personal experience, from emotion, from whatever the hell I’m feeling that day.

I think honestly when I was younger I use to love going to carnivals in Long Island. I use to love carnival season; I would drive to every town going to carnivals. That was definitely a favorite memory.

I definitely love horror movies and all that for sure.

I had rather be shut up in a very modest cottage with my books, my family and a few old friends, dining on simple bacon, and letting the world roll on as it liked, than to occupy the most splendid post, which any human power can give.

Behind every successful man stands a surprised mother-in-law.

Life is beautiful. It’s about giving. It’s about family.

I have so much admiration for women who are mothers, who balance family and work.

When mother is happy, family is happy. When family is happy, nation is happy.

The number one reason people fail in life is because they listen to their friends, family, and neighbors.

A man should never neglect his family for business.

I may not always be offered work, but I’ll always have my family.
