Personal Quotes

"I think when you're born, your soul is split into two and given to your perfect partner. When you see each other you'll be with each other forever."

"The only reason I would ever quit was if I found my soul mate and she had to move abroad which meant I couldn't do the music. I would hate to give it up but if you get the chance to fall in love it's the greatest gift there is and you shouldn't pass it up."
