“I couldn’t really picture a world without music. It would be quite boring.”

I go through my comments sometimes, and I’ll just take snapshots of the terrible ones and send them to my friends.

It always feels good to put something you’re proud of out in the world.

I would always do the songs that I wanted to do and the songs that my parents wanted me to do.

Everybody has their own story – it’s who you are. If I wasn’t five-foot, I wouldn’t be who I am!

I approach everyday personal beauty very naturally; I try to make it look like I’m not wearing makeup.

You just have to appreciate those kinds of things. So I wasn’t born with long legs – who cares. You just have to embrace it. Being body positive is really important to your overall happiness.

Everyone takes a bad selfie – the first thing is to know that.

It’s hard to see someone with a ‘perfect’ body and be like, ‘Why can’t I be like her?’ But that person was born to be who she is, and you’re born to be who you are.

Confidence is the most beautiful thing you can possess.

I guess we’ll see how it turns out and which one overpowers the other… but I couldn’t really see my life without them, both of them.

My first inspiration for acting came from the first episode of ‘Hannah Montana.’ That’s when I knew I wanted to be a singer and an actress.

I think the song itself, ‘Smoke and Fire,’ is just a metaphor for the feelings that you feel in a relationship.

That’s just a symbol of how you should deal with a breakup.

I take inspiration from people, relationships, stories, and I take inspiration from movies I see, books I read and songs I hear.

Every free day, every weekend, I am in a recording session. I’m very lucky to have such supportive people around me.

The first songs I learned was ‘Crazy’ by Patsy Cline and ‘At Last’ by Etta James. I had been growing up with the Beatles, Pink Floyd, great bands.

Now, the country is in a terrible state, and you’ve blamed it on a number of things: Unemployment rate, the value of the pound and all that… wrll, it’s because the national anthem is boring.

I mused for a few moments on the question of which was worse, to lead a life so boring that you are easily enchanted, or a life so full of stimulus that you are easily bored.

Writing is a mode of being. If I write I live.

Look at Van Gogh’s paintings: there’s as much joy in them as there is pain. Suffering is only a single color, and by itself it’s boring.

I hate just showing up, hitting a mark, doing your work, and going home. It’s very boring. But being part of the creation of the whole thing is very exciting.

Too often boring players have been pushed forward as great by figures alone. For sheer entertainment, he will keep cricket alive.

I never learned to read or write music. Never wanted to fool with scales. That was boring, forced. The music I heard was free – flowing.

The coma ward was boring yet difficult. Like golf.
