The act of song writing and recording became one and the same to me; because I essentially recorded everything I did from the day I began trying to write songs. I've always had a lot to say. I'd always written poems.

It's the process of writing and life that matters... We are trying to become sane along with our poems and stories.

The correctness and quality of what you write do not matter; the act of writing does.

My celebrity has held steady since the day I began acting. I don't view it as celebrity. I'm just a worker.

Singing was probably my first love, and song writing. I write a lot of love songs and heartbreaking songs.

Every song I've ever written was while I'm really emotional, maybe happy or maybe sad. Writing songs from those situations and experiences captures my soul, and things I can't express with people just talking to me. It's really intimate.
