At heart I am a librarian, a bird-watcher, a transcendentalist, a gardener, a spinster, a monk.
My songs are about not knowing who to be and not knowing how to act.
Keanu Reeves is, like, the worst actor I've ever seen. I can't believe he's a movie star.
My music - that's the one area I won't let myself be pushed around. But in other parts of my life, I'm a confused mess.
My whole life was writing, recording and touring over and over again. At some point I realised I wasn't enjoying myself any more.
People are complex. I'm just showing my complexity.
I'm kind of an emotional exhibitionist.
Motivation is just this potion to create stuff, a compulsion to express the truth of my own experiences in this life.
My growth as an artist and a person has been so slow and gradual, it's hard to make a story out of it.
Popular culture is filled with girls.
I'm really conflicted about my role as a front-person. I hate the attention.
I make music and I can't stop. It's a compulsion and an obsession and a curse.
People in L.A. don't have to brace themselves against the cold; they slack off permanently, and their brains turn to mush.
I am not dead inside. I still care about right and wrong.
