“I suppose my approach to religion is like my approach to music – I take what I want and leave the rest.”

I sort of do what I say and say what I do which I’m happy with because it makes my life real easy.

Live fast. Die young. Be wild. Have fun.

A man`s ego is just as fragile as a woman`s heart.

I’m like a child who belongs to nobody.

When you have absolutely no idea what’s going to happen to you or what your career’s going to end up like and you’re just really open to anything, then you don’t really have anything to loose.

I believe nothing happens by mistake. You know, the universe has a divine plan. That sounds dramatic.

I believe in free love and that’s just how I feel.

People have offered me opportunities in exchange for sleeping with them. But it’s not 1952 anymore.

When you get real big baby, remember that little old cowgirl. Waiting for you back in that red river valley.

I pretend I’m not hurt, I walk about the world like I’m having fun.

No matter how many people give me advice, I am going to do what my heart tells me to do.

I know now that it’s really important to feel beautiful. There is a power to that.

Bad things happen everyday but you’re not going to be any happier thinking about them.

Find someone who has a life that you want and figure out how they got it. Read books, pick your role models wisely. Find out what they did and do it.

Initially the fashion world was more interested in me than the music world, which was strange when I first started singing.

Do you know how expensive it is to look this cheap?

Once it gets down to single-digit games, you know the season’s end is approaching, and we’re all pretty physically tired.

I’m going to change the way martial arts is viewed. I’m going to change the game. I’m going to change the way people approach fighting.

It is very difficult to find appropriate words to say ‘thank you’ for an honour like the Nobel Prize.

I realized that my usual approach is usually critical. That is, a lot of the things that I do, that most people do, are because they hate something somebody else has done, or they hate that something hasn’t been done.

So, pretty much you approach the songs in pretty much the same way.

I think I’ve always approached making albums pretty much the same way.

People will ask me, “How do you approach writing books for young readers differently than for adults?” My answer is always: I don’t change anything about the story itself.

You cannot sell a Christendom approach to a post-Christian world. They are anti-Christian.
