Best Quotes:“There's no key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everyone.”
“I think it's good to remember that everything has been done before. The public has heard the stereotypical love songs a million times and they've heard the stereotypical life-or-death songs millions of times. It's good to mix it up a little bit.”
“I don’t really do that whole single life thing. I’m kind of heads down and get things done.”
