Loneliness and the feeling that you're no use to anyone - the worst kind of poverty.

Loneliness is emptiness, but happiness is you.

Loneliness is one thing, solitude another.

In loneliness, the lonely one eats himself; in a crowd, the many eat him. Now choose.

The most terrible poverty is loneliness, and the feeling of being unloved.

Music has always carried me through times of loneliness. So when I make music, I like it to make people who listen to it feel like they have a friend who reveals something personal to them, rather than trying to be like a god up on a pedestal.
