And if I'm being honest, I don't think I have an ex-boyfriend who would have something mean to say about me.

Five years from now I'm probably going to look back on the things I'm doing and cringe.

I also just accept that I might never want to write a song again.

I can bake. I made myself some nice French fries once. But otherwise I just eat out. Lots of salad bars.

I can't remember writing any of the songs that I've written.

I caved in to what people wanted me to do. I thought that they weren't going to like me if I didn't.

I dare anybody to look at me and say I'm anorexic. I'm so totally not.

I don't have a big thing about leaving my mark or being historic.

I don't know if anybody wants to mix their politics with their entertainment.

I know what my job is: I write the songs, I sing them, I play them on the piano.

I never went to concerts when I was a kid, so I never knew if what I was doing onstage was right.

I resent limitations. I'm going to be this way for a while.

I still don't know what Episcopalian means.

I want to be like the patron saint of reality.

I was so self-critical. I still am, but it's not as bad anymore.

I wasn't very ambitious as a child. I'm still not.

I'm a really good parent to myself sometimes, and I do things that make me learn and grow.

I'm here because of what I write. Obviously, I must know something.

I'm not a control freak.

I'm not used to not having enough time to live with the songs. Usually, if I write something, I live with it for a little while.
