“You can’t stop people from talking about you, but you can stop giving them something to talk about.”

I never had, like, a nanny that took care of me. My mom always fed me breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

There’s nothing more fun than being out on stage and getting the vibe from the crowd. There’s nothing like being on a set where you are there to make other people happy and to make them laugh. That’s the best job in the world.

Do what you are afraid to do.

Life is a climb and it’s a struggle getting to the top but the drop to the bottom can be quick and so I think you have to embrace every moment of the day.

Remember that only God can judge us; forget the haters, because Somebody loves you.

Music is the love of my life. It’s a total escape from reality. Music transports you to another place, someplace unexpected and meaningful.

I tell kids not to be on the Internet. It’s dangerous. It’s not fun. It wastes your life. You should just be outside playing sports, instead of sitting in front of any type of screen.

I’ve never just been able to be alone, and I’m obsessed with being alone and hearing my thoughts. I’m trying to take this alone time — the five minutes I do have a day — to learn as much as I can.

Drugs are for idiots. I’m never going to be that person.

It’s the little things that make us who we are in the bigger world.

There are times in my life where I’ve had boyfriends or girlfriends.

If someone tells you you’re not beautiful, turn around and walk away so they can have a great view of your fabulous ass.

When you’re younger, you’re more selfish, because there’s so much self-exploration, you’re in your own mind.

It is important to ask yourself why you’re doing what you’re doing and what purpose it serves in the big picture.

For me the most important thing is being a really good person, and that doesn’t depend on what you do on stage, that depends on how you treat people when you’re offstage.

Always look forward and try to push pass the negativity. I think everyone’s beautiful and they deserve to be happy no matter what.

If people in the media cannot decide whether they are in the business of reporting news or manufacturing propaganda, it is all the more important that the public understand that difference, and choose their news sources accordingly.

People ask the difference between a leader and a boss. The leader works in the open, and the boss in covert. The leader leads, and the boss drives.

To feel the love of people whom we love is a fire that feeds our life.

Good people do not need laws to tell them to act responsibly, while bad people will find a way around the laws.

Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.

When people made up their minds that they wanted to be free and took action, then there was a change.

The noble-minded are calm and steady. Little people are forever fussing and fretting.

No matter how much people on the left talk about compassion, they have no compassion for the taxpayers.
