This Is How I Feel About Everything

My Number-one Theory In Life Is That Style Is Proportional To Your Lack Of Resources - The Less You Have, The More Stylish You're Likely To Be.

Girls Are Taught To Sing High And Pretty, Like Antony, Not Low And From The Guts Like Nina Simone. But We're Slowly Trying To Change That. There Are So Many Things We're Not Told Growing Up, And It's Our True Feminist Responsibility To Take The Truth To The People Who Need To Hear It.

I'm A Great Believer In Karma And The Vengeance That It Serves Up To Those Who Are Deliberately Mean Is Generally Enough For Me.

I've Never Had A Very Quiet Voice. I Tried In Choir To Make It Smaller, And It Just Didn't Work Out. And I Listened To A Lot Of Soul Music When I Was Growing Up On My Own Accord. But I Was Mostly Into Mama Cass And Gladys Knight, And They All Had Big Voices Too; Just Different Than Mine.

My Life Hasn't Been Conventional And It Hasn't Been Linear. I've Had To Make It Up As I've Gone Along, Which Has Taught Me A Lot. If You Don't Accept The Obvious Options That Are Laid Out For You, It's Up To You To Work Out Where You're Going And To Create Your Own Specific Rules And Goals.
