More From Amy Lee

Cool is spent. cool is empty. cool is ex post facto. when advertisers and pundits hoard a word, you know it's time to retire from it. to move on. i want to suggest, therefore, that we begin to avoid cool now. cool is a trick to get you to buy garments made by sweatshop laborers in third world countries. cool is the triumph of the will. cool enables you to step over bodies. cool enables you to look the other way. cool makes you functional, eager for routine distraction, passive, doped, stupid.

I wouldn't know anything about opera music if it wasn't for bugs bunny. that was my entire introduction to opera music. i wouldn't know anything about classical music if it wasn't for "fantasia." they didn't have to do that stuff. they chose to base this ridiculous, funny, intriguing, creative story on this beautiful classical music. it's the combination of the high and the low that i thought was very cool. but i had no concept of it as a kid.

My father was able to play a number of musical instruments and i fell in love with classical music in my teens and i allowed it to influence me. i like to think i took and still do from classical music and various techniques, i have made classical albums and recorded seven different pieces of bach on different albums and its all music too me.

Teenage girls, please don’t worry about being super popular in high school, or being the best actress in high school, or the best athlete. not only do people not care about any of that the second you graduate, but when you get older, if you reference your successes in high school too much, it actually makes you look kind of pitiful, like some babbling old tennessee williams character with nothing else going on in her current life. what i’ve noticed is that almost no one who was a big star in high school is also big star later in life. for us overlooked kids, it’s so wonderfully fair.

I am inspired by thinkers. i am inspired by rebellion. i am inspired by children. i have been inspired by love. i have been inspired by heartbreak. i try to take everything that comes at me in life. there have been times in my life that i didn't handle things... right. but even though you stumble, you still kind of get through it.

In fact, most of the time, people with similar information, similar beliefs and similar apparent choices will choose similar actions. so if you want to know why someone does what they do, start with what they know, what they believe and where they came from. dismissing actions we don't admire merely because we don't care enough to have empathy is rarely going to help us make the change we seek. it doesn't help us understand, and it creates a gulf that drives us apart.

I believe in true love. but i am easily satisfied.

Talk about meeting your soul mate ... i truly feel i have been given that gift. and believe me, i wasn't some lightweight package. i'm, like, the package that didn't just come with luggage - i had trunks.

My needs were simple i didn't bother much with themes or felicitous phrases and skipped fine descriptions of weather, landscapes and interiors. i wanted characters i could believe in, and i wanted to be made curious about what was to happen to them. generally, i preferred people to be falling in and out of love, but i didn't mind so much if they tried their hand at something else. it was vulgar to want it, but i liked someone to say 'marry me' by the end.

I beg you to believe that life is not a process, it's a drama
