“I have a hard time writing music when I’m on tour.”

All this time I was finding myself and I didn’t know I was lost.

People in Sweden are very conscious of what people are saying about you.

I can’t tell where the journey will end But I know where to start.

I make sure to use both Twitter and Facebook a lot which helps me connect to the fans.

House music originated in America, and it has always been around, but I guess it just got a tighter hold on Europe and other parts of the world.

If I wanted to make a quick buck, there’s far easier ways of doing it. What I want is to provoke people. If you want a hit song, all you need to do is rewrite an old song. It might have been proven to work, but you won’t be remembered the same way.

I travel with a bunch of battery packs because I don’t always have time to charge my phone at the hotel room when I’m traveling. I always change them, so I never run out of battery.

I have always been mainstream. It’s so weird, because I don’t see it as something negative at all. So many people see it as something negative.

I always just sit down at the piano and make the main hook—what I want the track to be about melodically—and then I’ll build everything else around that. But growing up, I did not play any instruments.

I actually only started listening to house music around the time I started making it. I got hooked both to making music and to house music.

I’ve always had a fascination with making your own music but never have been skilled enough to play the instrument, so to be able to make music without the ability was awesome.

It’s hard – some people get inspired by a feeling, but I’m mostly inspired by melodies.

To me, I’m always trying to look for the energy, to imagine in being played on the dance floor. I guess that’s the most important thing in making music for me.

Life’s a game made for everyone, and love is the prize.

There’s always haters, no matter what you’re doing – whether they’re complaining that everything you do sounds the same, or it’s too different.

I think I am a pretty good judge of character in general and try to surround myself with the best people I can.

Whatever doesn’t kill you, it’s gonna leave a scar.

Each problem has a positive side.

Things don’t happen for no reason.

Everything you say to me takes me one step closer to the edge, and I’m about to break.

When true friends meet in adverse hour; ‘Tis like a sunbeam through a shower. A watery way an instant seen, The darkly closing clouds between.

Adversity causes some men to break; others to break records.

We are like the herb which flourisheth most when it is most trampled on.

Sometimes, it’s hard to pick right from wrong. The best thing we can do is go with our heart and hope it all goes well.
