“I hate to see a guy who insults a girl or is bad with her. Immediately I think she would be better if she was with me.”

Dreams do come true, believe always. I dreamt every night of becoming a singer

Everyone gets that second album syndrome.

We’re never going to escape the idea of being young. Which I don’t mind myself. I mean, who wants to grow up anyway?

I don’t want to live up to how people expect me to be.

Do you think anybody knows that I’m Irish?

I want to live forever! I want to learn how to fly high!

Fans always ask me to marry them so I’ll have a lot of wives.

I want to sell out arenas and make an album and work with some of the best artists in the world.

Changing is for weirdos.

Our band will never change , we will always be 5 singing idiots .

We cut up lemons on a chop board because they are good for our voices.

The type of girls that would sleep with you in a heartbeat aren’t the type of girls I’d want to take home anyway.

I feel I am a little bit older. Reckon I will start growing a beard next week.

If a man whistles at you, don’t turn around. You are a lady not a dog.

I was starstruck by Michelle Obama. She’s an amazing-looking lady, and I’m a massive Barack Obama fan anyway.

I’ll always defend the people I love even though I’m as terrifying as a baby penguin.

I mean, we’re always trying to evaluate and tweak things and get better.

I am human like everyone else. I am aware that there are people who look up to me. When mistakes are made, they aren’t intentional, and I constantly push myself to be a better person.

To be honest, I think about the clubs when I write. But I should probably start thinking about stadiums, because the songs sound even better there – and bigger.

We must use our lives to make the world a better place to live, not just to acquire things. That is what we are put on the earth for.

I’m working hard with more determination than ever. My success at the Salon led to my selling several paintings and since your absence I have made 800 francs; I hope, when I have contracts with more dealers, it will be better still.

The fact that I get to do what I love and 14 years in, I’m still doing it – I don’t know how anything could get better.

I don’t like being stagnant. I want to continue to grow and just be better at what I do, and the only way to do that is to keep stepping outside of your comfort zone.

Anything you can do I can do better, I can do anything better than you.
