“The old country singers, they were badass, they were the American badass people. I’m an American badass. At 40 years old, I’m gonna be a country singer.”

I’m hungry. I’m ready to grow.

I’m trying to bring a little bit of every type of sauce into one type of sound. Something that’s really fresh.

Worked so hard, forgot how to vacation.

I’m no good at goodbyes.

Once you have an established song, you can really come out of your shell and experiment with the sound you want to make.

If you keep staring at the sun, you won’t see.

She told me that I’m not enough and she left me with a broken heart.

On the road as an artist u start to crave the studio.

You can’t get tired in the studio. It’s really tough. But you just gotta keep on going.

In order to find yourself, who you really are, you got to be with yourself; you got to hang out with yourself.

I’m just myself. That’s the best way to put it.

Parking lot was so much fun!! thank you again to everyone who helped make this happen.

Every time you left, shit was never right.

I don’t want something anyone can have.

Never let money change you.

Men are allowed to have passion and commitment for their work… a woman is allowed that feeling for a man, but not her work.

This is what I tell, especially young women, fight the big fights. Don’t fight the little fight… Be the first one in, be the last one out. Do your homework, choose your battles. Don’t whine, and don’t be the one who complains about everything. Fight the big fight.

We work on macro issues and macaroni and cheese issues. When women are in the halls of power, our national debate reflects the needs and dreams of American families.

Do your thing and don’t care if they like it.

To work in architecture you are so much involved with society, with politics, with bureaucrats. It’s a very complicated process to do large projects.

Architecture arouses sentiments in man. T

We as artists cannot be politicians. We as artists can only be truth-tellers.

I’ve totally learned in this process that 99% of the time, your gut is right, and you know what’s right for you. I know exactly what’s right for my career and for my art, and sometimes, even if the whole room is saying, ‘Don’t do that, don’t do that,’ you know that doing that is going to be good for you, in the long run.
