Lord knows dreams are hard to follow, but don’t let anyone tear them away.

If you believe within your soul, just hold on tight and don’t let go! You can make it, make it happen.

Basically, I started singing when I started talking. Music has just been my saving grace my whole life.

I love Carrie Fisher, and it would be amazing to carry on her legacy.

To me the most important thing is getting into a studio and making an album that is 12 or 14 amazing songs, getting up onstage, and making people happy by livening the rock.

I don’t think I’m such an amazing person who needs to be written about.

I feel like I’ve lost so many amazing traits because I’ve listened to stupid people, ignorant people who are bullies.

Exercise is amazing, from the inside out. I feel so alive and have more energy.

My fans and followers are so amazing.

My parents are so amazing, and they’ve travelled around the world with me.

I grew up poor, but I didn’t really know it because of amazing places like the Salvation Army where we got a lot of our Christmas presents from.
