When Evanescence took time off, I bought a big concert harp and started taking lessons like I was in high school again, which was really, really fun. I felt like I was learning again.

More quotes by Amy Lee
I don't want to ever be a quote-unquote rock star. I want to just be me.
Amy Lee
I love contrast in music. Being inspired by classical, actually - in high school especially - classical and metal both, I remember having this cool realization that they are really similar. It's just different instrumentation.
Amy Lee
I've always been a very passionate, sometimes overly emotional person. Sometimes things affect me more than they should.
Amy Lee
If people are making fun of you, then you're probably doing something right.
Amy Lee
I've gotten to where my hair is like my onstage prop I need to hide behind it and throw it around - it's my slo-mo effect.
Amy Lee
If all we ever sang about was how happy we are, we would be lying to ourselves. People try to escape their problems by getting drunk, partying and dancing them away. What really heals me is to sit down and think, face the facts, then you can get over it and be happy
Amy Lee
I was always a drama queen. I remember playing in the kitchen, trying to get my mom to think I was dead and call the police. When she didn't, I would cry. I was always theatrical. I don't think any of my relatives are surprised.
Amy Lee
I love tiny, plastic realistic food magnets. I don't know why. They're hilarious.
Amy Lee
So many nights I cried myself to sleep. Now that you love me, I love myself. I never thought I would say this. I never thought there'd be you.
Amy Lee
I know how it feels to be completely alone and helpless, and the last thing you want to hear in that situation is, 'It's going to be OK.' The only thing that seems to really help is that someone else who has felt that low expressing those feelings to you.
Amy Lee
You don’t have to be half-naked to be successful. Just be talented.
Amy Lee
I write by myself initially. That's the way I've always written, just working on pure thought by myself. Then I bring it to the table with whoever I'm collaborating with.
Amy Lee
We've never been a religious band, but the media wants us to be.
Amy Lee
I wanted to be a veterinarian until I saw a video of a vet performing surgery on a dog. Then I decided I wanted to be a pianist.
Amy Lee
It might not look it but rocking in a corset is harder than you think
Amy Lee
That's where I spent of lot of my high-school years -- in the closet. It wasn't too cramped, but you do get really hot.
Amy Lee
I'm not the fastest writer. I can't just crank out ideas that are good enough.
Amy Lee
I try to be feminist in, like, I love myself and I don't need someone else's approval.
Amy Lee
Nobody's perfect. I'm perfectly flawed.
Amy Lee
I design a lot of things that I wear onstage, but I'm always looking for unique stuff. I like creative things, so anything I can find at a secondhand costume shop to a Helmut Lang store, it doesn't matter - just unique stuff.
