"All of my songs are autobiographical...." - Quote by Taylor Swift

“I like things that make me feel seven again. I don't ever look down on people for the way they choose to have fun; it's just not necessarily the way I like to have fun.”

“Your feelings so are important to write down, to capture, and to remember because today you're heartbroken, but tomorrow you'll be in love again.”

“I think I've developed, as many people do, this sense of, 'Don't say the wrong thing, or else people will point at you and laugh.'”

“Songwriting is like ... being possessed. You try to go to sleep but the song won't let you.”

“For some reason, I'm really comfortable talking about my personal life in songs.”

“There are so many emotions that you're feeling, you can get stifled by them if you're feeling them all at once. What I try to do is take one moment - one simple, simple feeling - and expand it into three-and-a-half minutes.”

“My sincerity is my credentials.”

“The real artist, who knew what he was imitating, would be interested in realities and not in imitations; and would desire to leave as memorials of himself works many and fair; and, instead of being the author of encomiums, he would prefer to be the theme of them.”

“To be natural is such a very difficult pose to keep up.”
