The Broken Bow group is such a great family and seem like a group of tight-knit people. When I looked for a new label, I wanted to feel I could trust everybody. I wanted motivation to be at an all-time high.

When I look at the majority of my own songs they really came from my own sense of personal confusion or need to express some pain or beauty - they were coming from a universal and personal place.

Annie Lennox

My life should be unique; it should be an alms, a battle, a conquest, a medicine.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Courage, above all things, is the first quality of a warrior.

Karl Von Clausewitz

This time, there was no escape, I could not turn away, could not leave without accepting what I had done. There was only one way to the other side, and that was through the pain.

Vanessa Diffenbaugh

If I respect myself and believe in what I'm doing, no one can touch me.

Fiona Apple

It's not my job to dream your dreams. It's my job to make your dreams become a reality.

Blanche Lincoln

It is by attempting to reach the top in a single leap that so much misery is produced in the world.

William Cobbett

I don't want to be pigeonholed into doing just romantic comedies. But they're fun, and especially for women, it's nice to go to see them and enjoy that breath of fresh air.

Kristen Bell

A painting that is well composed is half finished.

Pierre Bonnard

Afraid lest he be caught up in a net of words, tripped up, bewildered and so defeated

William Carlos Williams, Journal

The saying that beauty is but skin deep is but a skin-deep saying.

Herbert Spencer

William Scott
