“I learned how quickly I could go from having never met someone to having the world think I'm dating them.”

“I put so much of myself out there and make myself so accessible that sometimes I fear I make myself too accessible.”

“A guitar can be so human, so sorrowful, so angry, and I wanted to figure out how to achieve that vibe without having to actually use guitars, because 'Badlands' is a very futuristic record - and making it that in an era of futuristic music is a really hard thing to do!”

“Never think you've seen the last of anything.”

“Anything I've ever said, I certainly was feeling at the time.”

“I hated singing, I hated being on stage; I hated being in the Cranberries. I was constantly crying. I was going insane. I wanted to be a shopkeeper, a hairdresser, anything. I was so desperate to have a reality, friends, a regular, boring life. I missed that.”

“If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.”
