AURORA: "You simply have to accept that your demons are a part of you."
AURORA: "When you're outside, and everything is highland, it's like nature has its own sound, and that's one of my favorite sounds. I really loved sitting still silently outside, in a tree or in a bush, to just think."
AURORA: "I have this feeling that the world is not in balance. And people are afraid, but we're also starting to be really brave."
AURORA: "I'm constantly trying to find new ways to get my hair out of my face."
AURORA: "The world around me has changed, and I have learned to adapt but not change. But I'm changing into the woman I am meant to be."
AURORA: "Music is this divine thing, the closest that we can get to something divine. It's like this instinct we all own, and some of us have found a way to hear that music and write it down and share it with people."
AURORA: "It seemed like a very small possibility for me to become an artist. I didn't have the need to be on the stage; I didn't feel the need to be heard. I just needed to write."
AURORA: "I'm very picky; I'm never happy with anything. It's so hard to give the record away and accept that you're done."
AURORA: "I think I have the nicest fans in the world, and I quite like being surrounded by people if we're all feeling the same emotion in the same room."
AURORA: "It's very strange to go to cities like London and New York. People walk so quickly, they seem to be in a hurry all the time. And you don't say 'Hi' to everyone you meet, and you don't smile to everyone you meet, because there's just so many. Which is also very strange."
AURORA: "I have always enjoyed watching my songs make people cry."
AURORA: "Many of my fans often tell me that they listen to my songs to get through things. And therefore, obviously, I hope that they can picture being in a place where things are better... I hope my songs can bring people to a calm place."
AURORA: "I love to be alone, and I did as a child as well, especially if I was outside."
AURORA: "My music seems to have a bigger mission than I have, which is very soothing but also very strange because people see more in me than I see, which can be terrifying."
AURORA: "Metal, I love metal sounds. If I have a stick with me, I just drag it across a fence. And all fences make different sounds, just like people when they laugh."
AURORA: "My body is quite tiny, but a lot of the emotions I feel are pretty explosive. They have to come out."
AURORA: "Young people can create beautiful things."
AURORA: "Even if my songs are quite sad or quite dark, I don't want my songs to make people sad. It's very important for me that all my songs have some kind of hope or light."
AURORA: "Oh, I've always been very... Emotional. 'Hypersensitive' is what they call it, I think."
AURORA: "Talent is something that comes from within; it has nothing to do with age."
AURORA: "I usually write lyrics first, and then when I get home or close to any kind of instrument, I usually make a melody for those lyrics."
AURORA: "Lots of songs aren't even from my experiences, but they're about accepting... the dark things about yourself."
AURORA: "My skin gets so dry and chapped, and the second I get off the plane, I apply so much sunscreen."
AURORA: "It's a very strange thing being recognized or looked upon as someone special."
