“First I wanted to be a veterinarian. And then I realized you had to give them shots to put them to sleep, so I decided I’d just buy a bunch of animals and have them in my house instead.”

The way I see it, you should live everyday like its your birthday.

A man must walk before he can fly – one cannot fly into flying.

One night stands are not for me. I think it’s gross when you just give it up.

There’s so many people out there who try to imitate what I do but I am the original.

The best accessories a girl can have are her closest friends.

Barbie is my role model. She might not do anything, but she looks good doing it.

I’m so smart now. Everyone’s always like ‘take your top off’. Sorry, NO! They always want to get that money shot. I’m not stupid.

I’m very intelligent. I’m capable of doing everything put to me. I’ve launched a perfume and want my own hotel chain. I’m living proof blondes are not stupid.

I have this great test to see if a girl’s a real friend. When we’re shopping I’ll pick out an outfit that I know looks hot and one that is awful. If my friend says the bad one looks good, I know she’s not a good friend.

All it takes is one drink to mess with the way you drive – it clouds your judgment and slows your reflexes. Don’t take any chances. It just isn’t worth it.

I’d rather not do anything. Guys want you more when you don’t. Young girls should know that.

I always knew I had a voice and I’ve always known I could sing, but I was too shy to let it come out. I think it’s the hardest thing to do, to sing in front of people. When I finally let go and did it, I realized it’s what I’m most talented at and what I love to do the most.

Never give up on the things that make you smile.

It’s good to just smile and go on with your day.

I didn’t want to be like all these socialites – they sit at home, and go to the debutant ball, and marry some rich guy and that’s it. That’s all they do. I wanted to do my own thing so I could buy whatever I want, do whatever I want.

A true heiress is never mean to anyone – except a girl who steals your boyfriend.

It’s important to drive your own ship, and it’s your career, so you might as well take it by the reins.

It is commonly believed that anyone who tabulates numbers is a statistician. This is like believing that anyone who owns a scalpel is a surgeon.

I’ve always looked on myself as one of a band and never sought a solo career.

I would love to be a pop star!

Looking back – I did have a lot of success and a lot of great opportunities earlier in my career.

I got to work with one of my heroes, Johnny Depp, and to see how he goes about business, which was really inspiring for me at this stage in my career.

I’m still at the beginning of my career. It’s all a little new, and I’m still learning as I go.

I feel that at any stage of my literary career it could have been said that the last book contained all the others.
