“We all had egos. That’s what happens when you’re a musician and a teenager.”
“When you take the comfortability out of your life, that’s when you start pushing the hardest.”
“I’ve always been this really strong confident woman…..and that relationship stole all of that from me…. my whole career and my whole life became about how can I make you happy…”
“Set the standard from the beginning..don’t ever let it get to that point..because once it gets to that point, it’s probably too late. Don’t allow a man to feel that way about yourself.”
“There is no such thing as an overnight success.”
