I think you just have to take the bad with the good and you're going to get hurt more, but it's worth it.

Your physicality is this great thing, but it is also the thing that makes you clumsy and limits you in the world, so to speak.

I don't typically work that late into the night in a studio, I'm more productive during the day.

I have so many moments. I am extremely passionate about life and at the same time, I'm always depressed, so everything's always happening at the same time for me. It's the best day and the worst day too.

I sit down and draw from my lyric book. I sit down and start looking through it and see if there is anything that strikes me that I've written.

But if you want to be a songwriter-based musician, whether you play punk or rock or country or jazz, whatever, you have to work on your songwriting and you have to work on being able to play in front of people, I think. That performance is how you create the groundwork for a lasting career.

At some point I was hanging around with the Butchies - a band I ended up playing with a lot - and it just brought out this thing in me... and it felt very different from the Indigo Girls.

When people say, 'Nothing's coming to me,' they usually don't like what's coming to them.

I have a lyric journal that I write in a lot. When I'm going to play, I just sit down and have my books with me and my notes and tapes and whatever I need to refer to. I just play and try different things. It's a kind of discipline.

I mean, I really, really love playing solo. Definitely, it's like a labor of love, it's not a huge career. It's not that successful, but it's something I love so much that I'll do it regardless.
