| Mick Jagger | I must be careful not to get trapped in the past. That's why I tend to forget my songs. | 102 |

| Alanis Morissette | What's that line from TS Eliot? To arrive at the place where you started, but to know it for the first time. I'm able to write about a breakup from a different place. Same brokenness. Same rock-bottom. But a little more informed, now I'm older. Thank God for growing up. | 201 |
