Being alone is and nothing is altogether not..

I'm a free agent. I want the major-label budget for my next album, but I'm too big for the label to pay me. I don't want to be controlled, to be wate….

the history of melancholia includes all of us..

We don't really make friends, they make us..

You are someone and you have a right to your life..

There is always time for failure.

Knowledge is after all a non-rivalrous good.

When I began to read, I began to exist.

As a dramatist, I don't have politics..

I love everybody. Even George Bush..

You're never going to satisfy everybody..

Stop needing and start having. Stop wanting and start being..

Nothing else even comes close..

I definitely like being in bands with other women because it's just, I don't know, it's just better..

The things which must be must be for the best..

All of us are better when we're loved..

There is no such thing as society..

Truth implies meaning..

You've got one go in life, so make the most of it..

I rather like the idea of defying death..

Not that we were incompatible: we just had nothing to talk about..
