“I think it’s not about what you say; it’s about what you don’t say.”

I’d love to work with Bruno Mars and Ryan Tedder.

I’m kind of still learning my voice and learning my style.

I used to write stories. Handwriting stories in school were a big deal for me. That’s kind of what I did.

You look back at people like Elvis and The Beatles and still get their music because it’s timeless. That’s what I want.

I’ve never had a scandal, but I don’t know if that’s so much because I’m perfect, or because people aren’t caring enough yet. Give it some time. I’ll probably be very upset, but it’s a part of the gig.

As soon as I get time, I really wanna dig down and do some acting.

I’m tortured because I care. I’m always upset about not doing things as good as I think I could have because I care.

My first Vine I really just posted out of spontaneity.

I’m not the best singer in the world; I’m just good at picking up what I want to sound like.

Absolutely, I never stop working on new music.

I have a song called ‘I Don’t Even Know Your Name’ which I think is going to be well liked across the board.

I think my all time favourite song would be between ‘Slow Dancing in a Burning Room’ and ‘Dreaming with a Broken Heart’ by John Mayer.

I loved Nashville. I was amazed by the whole place.

I’m not just writing songs that are narrating my life, but everyone else around my age because they’re super-relatable.

You have to work the crowd.

I’m not a rapper.

Don’t ignore the five senses in search of a sixth.

I am made and remade continually. Different people draw different words from me.

How could drops of water know themselves to be a river? Yet the river flows on.

The nearest to my heart are a king without a kingdom and a poor man who does not know how to beg.

The best things in life are free. The second best things are very, very expensive.

You are your own stories.

Ask advice of him who governs himself well.

Listen to many, speak to a few.
