“I would never create an image for myself; I’m not that clever.”

Because I’ve always been a runner I love to feel that my body is shining on the inside. I wear baggy clothes, so it’s not as though I like showing it off. I just like to know I’m great on the inside.

Something funny always happens in every show in the UK and I genuinely love touring the UK because it’s where I’m from. I just get a warm feeling when I’m home.

The smallest changes, like I stopped eating meat and I’ve been doing different kinds of exercise like Yoga and stuff like that, little changes have made me feel a bit more at peace I think.

Men are wary of me because they know, by listening to my music, that a relationship with me will be quite deep.

It’s so important to take vitamins. People always get ill on tour because of the close proximity in the bus with everyone.

You get to a certain age and you can’t judge yourself on your dad or your parents.

I was quite a weird kid because I didn’t like getting presents. I don’t know why. I just went for books all the time.

I feel more confident if my makeup looks good.

I’m a bit of a like girly-girl, really, I like flowery stuff.

You can be the happiest you can be in a relationship but can have an urge to be with someone else. I know a lot of people that it has happened to.

I love prints of skulls and bones and have some taxidermy – a crow and a rabbit – to remind me of home. I like art and have a big portrait of Bjork.

You never know what to expect. You don’t just walk on and expect an amazing reaction.

I just sing and write songs and wear what I want. It’s quite a good job really. If I wanted to I suppose I could become more of a fashion icon, but singing is my thing.

God’s love is so real that He created you to prove it.

Take time to learn about the lives of women around the world-and try to play a small part in their fight to create the future they deserve.

Angels, living light most glorious! Beneath the Godhead in burning desire in the darkness and mystery of creation you look on the eye of your God never taking your fill: What glorious pleasures take shape within you!

There are a lot of gay people in fashion, but it’s not as if every gay person is a great creator.

People who confuse what they wish were true with what is really true create distorted pictures of reality that make it impossible for them to make the best choices.
