My darlings, if I can`t write dark, epic music, i can`t live!

We`re definitely a rock band, but the twist is that the band`s music is epic, dramatic, dark rock. - on Evanescence.

I`m glad that people are accepting our music and are connected to our art. Whether we`re popular or not, I don`t care.

I am Evanescence. I am the only original member. I have basically hired the band. Evanescence has become me. It is mine and it`s exactly how I want it to be.

If people are making fun of you then you`re probably doing something right.

The fact that he left the band, it wasn`t like it killed me and hurt my feelings and made me feel like I lost a friend, it was actually more of a relief because he`d been so unhappy on tour recently that it was making everyone else unhappy. We all hope he`s happier now. - commenting on Ben Moody`s decision to leave the band.
