“I have a lot of money stashed away, but I do live my life from day to day.”

I was more ashamed that I couldn’t work the washing machine than the fact that I was taking drugs.

I was just genuinely shy. I’d always been a shy kid.

I was sitting in the classroom trying to look intelligent in case the teacher looked at me.

As a child, as a teenager, I was kind of not allowed to wear fashionable clothes.

Bands today have to learn their craft by putting the hard work in that we did when we were young performers.

That’s just a part of being an artist: you can’t write great stuff all the time, because if you did, then you’d be inhuman. The human side of people is that sometimes they fail.

I really appreciate my performing so much better, as I get older. I don’t take it for granted anymore. I really relish it and love it.

My mantra is if you raise money, don’t waste it.

What a scandal, if I die. Yeah, I’m gonna kill myself, get a little headline news.

It seems to me, sorry seems to be the hardest word.

If you write great songs with meaning and emotion, they will last for ever because songs are the key to everything.

Unless you show off you’re not going to get noticed.

Talk to each other. Never go to bed when you’re angry with each other. Lady Antonia Frasier who was married to Harold Pinter said they never went to bed on an argument.

I’m a juvenile product of the working class, who’s best friend floats in the bottom of a glass.

I think Jesus was a compassionate, super-intelligent gay man who understood human problems.

I never thought of myself as being handsome or good-looking or whatever.

One of the secrets of getting more done is to make a TO DO List every day.

When I get up in the morning, I have to decide what I’m going to have for dinner or I can’t get through the day.

On a clear day, on a clear day, you can see forever, and ever, and ever more.

There are three days that are really slow for restaurants – Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter.

So every day till the end of this campaign, Ill answer any question anyone has on government, but if you have a question on religion, please, go to church.

Keep writing. Try to do a little bit every day, even if the result looks like crap.

Even the day must let go of the sun and allow the light to disappear, so the darkness can live for a while. The only way out of grief is through it.

When I was a little girl, I had a friend and sometimes I wondered if he was born on the day the Titanic sank.
