I love In-N-Out!

The scenes in 'The Virgin Suicides' where Elle Fanning is ice skating are really amazing.

I think it's cool to be a rock star; I don't think there are many. There aren't many who speak out and take risks. And I think that's important.

From the moment I stepped into this industry, I've always had to fight for my ideas and for my voice to be heard.

In the '90s, there was always this continuous pitting of women against each other in the media, trying to make them battle it out.

Fashion is instant. It makes you feel something the second you see it on a body... whether you love it or hate it, or it offends you, or it makes you laugh or cry.

I always love wearing Vivienne Westwood. Her dresses just seem to fit me perfectly, and she makes dresses for girls with curves - I love that.

All my favourite pop songs are the most stupid ones, the ones that are the most obvious.

I think the process of 'I Love It' becoming such a big song opened my eyes to sides of the industry that I'd never been aware of, which I wasn't so into.

My voice is different, but I don't think I'm the only one with a different take on pop music.

I get on with people. I don't hang out with people who aren't nice. It's like, be real or go home.

You should respect the people you are around.

I think debate is good. Everyone has an opinion, and it's definitely healthy to voice those.

Most of my favorite artists are strong females.

I think it's awesome when a woman is in control of everything she's doing, especially in an industry like this where people think that doesn't happen often, but it really does - well, from my knowledge and how I manage my own project.

I always see my songs in colors, and I'm often more inspired by movies and photographs than I am by other songs when I write my music. I'm also inspired by fashion, and I want my music to be a visual painting of what's in my mind.

Whenever I'm writing a song, if I have an idea for the music video, that's how I know it's a good song.

I just feel like the songs I write lend themselves to this girl-power feeling, and those are the artists that I looked up to when I was younger.

There's something about girls together, uniting, that I just thought was cool.

I love karaoke and totally hog the mic when I go out and do it with my friends.

I loved Justice and Uffie and everyone signed to the label Ed Banger. They were really influential to me when first started making music.

I've always said that if I couldn't be myself, first I'd want to be Eminem and then a Disney kid.

I want to share the experiences I've had.

I wrote a song for Icona Pop which boosted my confidence quite a lot.

The XCX really stands for 'kiss Charli kiss,' which is unbelievably crap.

I started writing my own things when I was about 8.

I've always played it my way. I failed media training, for example.

I feel like I can be six different people in one day sometimes. Which is fun but also really strange in my own brain.

I'm going to build an empire. I'm always writing for someone else. I want to be someone who has her fingerprints all over the pop charts.

When you're growing up, I think there's this idea that the coolest people are the ones who are really rude and feverish. But I've come to realize that isn't cool.

I know how to win people over if things aren't going my way.

Obviously, my label would want me to be on the radio all the time, but that's not my personal goal.

Obviously, getting a number in the charts is a nice thing but the cherry on the cake rather than the main cake.

I am very spontaneous when I write; it kind of just comes out. I never think about what I'm going to write about first... it just sort of comes out like word vomit.

'True Romance' was definitely, in part, still me finding my voice as a writer. I was nervous, and I was a lot more shy. The album sounds bruised.

I never dress for the occasion correctly because I hate fashion rules. They're so boring.

I'm not good at dressing up fancy; I always just do my thing, which is whatever I'm in the mood for.

It's kind of weird talking about yourself all the time.

The first show I did with Coldplay was really scary.

I really love Grimes, Niki & the Dove, stuff like that.

In the same way that musicians inspire me, artists and photographers like David LaChapelle influence me with their visuals. A photographer like LaChapelle creates an entirely new and unique visual for their work, and that's what I'd like to do with the Charli XCX world as well.

I feel like the U.K. is a better breeding ground for pop, partially because the radio play is more broad and open to new ideas and sounds.

My dad always used to encourage me to dress weird.

Nobody wants to see someone's life ruined over a small-time lapse in judgment.

I would argue that the charter schools are really good at building programming and curriculum around the issues and the interests of the kids that they serve.

We must have courage to set partisanship aside and embrace the best ideas and solutions no matter which side of the aisle they come from.

Balance is a good thing - checks and balances are a good thing.

Success is measured by what we accomplish together.

When I left Harvard Pilgrim, it had been ranked first in the nation by U.S. News and World Report for customer satisfaction for six years in a row.

Our obligation to the people we serve is too important to place politics and partisanship before progress and results.
