- People often ask me if it's hard to stay 'normal', but I don't see the difficulty in that. You're only famous in the eyes of others. Inside you're still the same and not a hundred million records or TV shows can change that. I think the only pitfall of fame is believing that it means something, and behaving like that.
- When Twentysomething became a hit, everyone found that it was time 'to catch up'. Old teachers, great-aunts, cousins related by marriage, 'friends' from the past...
- I don't feel like making a quick buck and sleep around. My only ambition is to grow as a musician.
- 'Cullum' is Scottish, but I'm nowhere near Scottish. My mother is Burmese and my father is of German, Jewish, English ancestry.
