“Writing songs is performing, on a small scale, what it means to be a being that exists as a temporary eruption of thought and feeling. We're fireworks, right? This beautiful glittering explosion that's dying as soon as it starts living. Once I understood that, it felt like there was no more meaningful thing to do with my life than create beauty with an expiration date. Art like us.”

“Every one of us is granted with a pen… an invisible, but the most precious one. With it… you can write your own story. For that, you have an option.

“Muzikoje glūdėjo grožis – grožis ir gėris. Ji liejosi lyg vanduo iš dubens, viena gaida, susipynusi su kita, sudarydavo visumą ir kildavo. Pripildė mane. Muzika nebuvo pašėlusi, bet joje slypėjo galinga aistra, tvinkčiojantis džiaugsmas ir sielvartas. Prispaudžiau kelius prie krūtinės, trokšdama pajusti tvirtą savo odą, net ir išterliotą gličiais dažais. Muzika tiesė taką, kylantį spalvų arkomis. Ėjau juo iš kameros, po medžiais, į atvirą dangų. Muzikos ritmas lyg rankos švelniai stūmė pirmyn, tempė aukštyn, vedė per debesis. Niekada nebuvau regėjusi tokių debesų – minkštuose jų šonuose įžiūrėjau dailius liūdinčius veidus. Jie nyko, nespėjus gerai įsižiūrėti, o aš žvelgiau į tolį, kur mane kvietė muzika. Saulė arba tekėjo, arba leidosi. Debesis ji užliejo violetine ir purpurine spalva, geltoni spinduliai nuauksino mano taką ir pavertė švytinčio metalo juosta. Norėjau joje išnykti, troškau, kad tos saulės spindulys mane sudegintų, užlietų tokiu džiaugsmu, kad ir pati virsčiau saulės spinduliu. Tai nebuvo šokių muzika – buvo giesmė, ji užpildė sielos spragas, vedė ten, kur nebėra skausmo.”
