There's days when I'd love for everybody to realize that things have gone too far, and that we need to be born again so that we can appreciate the little things... then there's other days when I think the world deserves to be destroyed. Why should I help anybody? Everybody's stepped on me my whole life. I've put on this crown... but I'm not sure if I want it.
I'd like to think that I'd helped people all over the world to question the things they otherwise would have accepted as the truth. I'd also like to think that I'd charmed them a bit with my lovely vocal stylings and the baring of my lovely arse.
It isn’t hard to find a person whom I could fall in love with, to give her romance. But it’s hard to find such a person who would understand your view on life, accept who you really are and would truly care for you.
When you grow up in America things like Christianity waters down your feeling... When you're taught to love everybody, taught to love you're enemies, what value does that put on love?

When all of your wishes are granted, many of your dreams will be destroyed.
I fall in love very easily.
I fall in love with everything I also hate everything. It’s very hard to be a misanthrope and a romantic.
The opposite of love is apathy, and hate is really the same as love-if your so consumed with hatred for someone, you might as well be loving them because your thinking about them for the same amount of time.
I'm my most creative between 3 and 5 a.m. That's the way I've always been.
I like Kylie Minogue sometimes - I like a lot of unusual stuff... I don't know - I like Justin Timberlake over Lady Gaga, just musically.
There was a saying that I saw on a packet of sugar and I think anyone can apply it to their life: 'Don't bother telling the truth to a friend because he already knows it, and don't bother telling the truth to an enemy because he won't believe it'.
I'm in the final stages with one of the major companies,
It wasn't anything spectacular or acrobatic. It was something I'd do a million times a show.
