Before, for me, peace could have been synonymous with boredom.
And the smile that is worth the praises of earth is the smile that shines through tears.
I have witnessed the softening of the hardest of hearts by a simple smile.
I just want to make people smile.
What looks like enjoyment is the sneer of contempt. That's not a smile.
You see, with me, when I'm nervous, I smile and laugh.
I have got two reasons for success and I'm standing on both of them.
The writing of a melody is an emotional moment; success doesn't make it easy.
I'm very competitive, and my ego couldn't handle that lack of success.
Success is a nice by-product but what I really want is work.
It's so interesting how success hits people and how they react to it.
I went to America and got into a band, had success, had hits in Australia.
I think society, in general, is hard on women, period.
I love doing things that people don't expect.
I never have, but I would love to pick R. Kelly's brain.
I'd love to get played on the radio, but it just doesn't happen.
It is the same in love as in war; a fortress that parleys is half taken.
Love and pain become one in the same in the eyes of a wounded child.
I love getting dressed up.
I would love to record something with PJ Harvey or Alison Goldfrapp.
Develop a mind so filled with love that it resembles space.
