“All will be raised by the power of God, having spirit in their bodies, and not blood.”

My album focuses on unrequited love quite a lot because I don’t think it’s spoken about enough in music. I’ve been through it myself and I found it hard to find songs that were about that, so I’ve definitely tried to make that a part of my album.

Everyone has sadness-I just get mine out in my music so that I can laugh and joke and flirt with you!

If to be old is not to be wise, then it is simply to be obsolete.

A news conference is a device by which the establishment keeps large numbers of reporters from covering the news every place else.

There were a lot of people who were willing to write a letter for me. Not because I was academically inclined, but because I worked hard.

I want to be rich in all the foods I’ve tasted and all the places I’ve been and all the people I’ve kissed.

No offense to people who go on Tinder but I just feel like it’s ruining romance, I really do.

One-hundred percent, even now I doubt myself. I don’t understand what people hear in my voice. I can’t hear it myself, if you know what I mean.

To control and enslave the minds of men, all one must do is convince them that a secret exists, and that he is privy to information regarding that secret; hence the power of priests and psychics.

Thank you so much for breaking my heart because you got me four Grammys.

In the Lonely Hour is about a guy that I fell in love with last year, and he didn’t love me back. I think I’m over it now, but I was in a very dark place. I kept feeling lonely in the fact that I hadn’t felt love before.

I’ve actually tasted the beer; it’s quite nice. It’s called Samuel Smith, which is my actual name. It’s good beer. Maybe that’s my favorite.

I used to have a little whisky before I went on stage. I realized that could have slowly turned into something a bit more serious. I get hyped up. I also think doing it a lot, you get used to it. You get more confidence. It’s confidence building, really.

I’ve only been in unrequited relationships where people haven’t loved me back. I guess I’m a little bit attracted to that in a bad way.

Would to God, brethren, I could tell you WHO I am! Would to God I could tell you WHAT I know! But you would call it blasphemy and want to take my life!

Above all, we must understand that in leaving the toxic ways of the present we are healing ourselves, our places, and our planet. We rebel not as a last act of desperation but as a first act of creation.

And then writer in you is so homesick of pain, that you plead your wounds to bleed and ache.

Most gladly would I give the blood-stained laurel for the first violet which March brings us, the fragrant pledge of the new-fledged year.

Are you native to the land you are spilling blood on?

Even when the blood in my veins is the same as them, every cell in my body is against becoming like them. What a curse it is to hate the very thing that birth you.

I thought marriage was tough. Golf’s like going over Niagara Falls in a barrel! It’s a psychological game that gets into your blood.

Acting runs through my blood. There is some sort of creative desire to express myself and I would need that outlet. Otherwise I would be a nightmare to live with.

A fan had written my name on his chest with blood once. That was not just crazy but scary, too!

They call her my singer – because her blood sings for me.
