- Just let me live my life.
- I wish I could have built without destroying things.
- People are going to think what they want to think. I let them. You can't control perception. It's a losing game so I don't play. I let them lose; lose themselves in their own fantasies of what they want me to be. A rebel, an angel, a romantic, a heart breaker, a boy, a man. Perhaps I am all of those things. Perhaps I'm none. But what I am is for me to find out, not to be dictated to me. It's for me to know.
- If you open yourself as an artist, as a human being to this experience of growing, you grow anyway.
- I normally don't regret. I enjoy everything, even if it's bad or good.
