I can't control what people think. They know who I am.

I have no control over people's perceptions of me at all and that's one of the things I decided very early on is that I can't control the way other people think of me. All I can do, especially when it comes to my career is go out there and do cool unique kinds of things.

It is nice to be around people who think differently than you. They challenge your ideas and keep you from being complacent.

I'm constantly being influenced by the soul that's directly in front of me.

The people that you have around you are your biggest influence.

I'm a mad thinker in general. I think about everything, all the time. Especially when I write music, a lot of the influences come from personal experiences or from being on the outside looking in, being that person who witnessed things that stuck with me throughout my life.

Seek always for the answer within. Be not influenced by those around you, by their thoughts or their words.

Part of me still feels like I've never had the opportunity to properly express all my earliest influences, so for now, I find isolation to be my biggest influence.

I'm just trying to get rid of all the mystery surrounding me and let people see what I'm thinking. So they can understand me and stop assuming things about me.

I always want to stay focused on who I am, even as I'm discovering who I am.
