“I’m not one of those people that goes into details of my personal life on national TV to get attention. Some things are better left unsaid.”

You really just want to know that somebody loves you for you. Sometimes you feel like an ATM machine with a wig on it.

I’m experimenting with my voice. Every day I do different things with it, and if I feel it’s appropriate I do it on the record.

It’s kinda like being on a roller coaster. If you don’t get on the ride, you won’t experience the adventure.

There’s an answer, if you reach into your soul, and the sorrow that you know will melt away.

Suffered from alienation,carried the weight on my own,had to be so strong,so I believed,and now I know I’ve succeeded,in finding the place I conceived.

I hope to be around past the 90’s. I don’t want to just be categorized as one of this era. My goal is to have a career that stands.

I do not think I reinvent myself. Wearing my hair differently or changing my style of dress is playing dress-up. I don’t take it too seriously.

Standing alone,eager to just believe,it’s good enough to be what you really are,but in your heart,uncertainty forever lies,and you’ll always be,somewhere on the outside.

You really have to look inside yourself to find your inner strength.

There’s a hero if you look inside your heart. You don’t have to be afraid of what you are.

I work myself into the ground. But I think I’m a nice friend and a good person, and I try to do my work as best I can.

Pregnancy was probably the best and the hardest thing I’ll ever go through. I know for a lot of women, it can be wonderful and relatively easy.

You can fight against people, and fight to the death, but can’t control the world.

In this world, I call the shots and I think I know best.

I know you’re shining down on me from Heaven, like so many friends we’ve lost along the way. And I know eventually we’ll be together, one sweet day.

The best part of making music, for me, is collaborating and working with new people and fresh sounds and all those things that get people excited to continue in this business that we all love so much.

The stuff we choose to surround ourselves has a claim on our time, energy, and attention and finally on our life. 

It wasn’t you but your soul that caught my attention.

We all need love and a lot of attention.

A strong friendship doesn’t need your daily attention.

I am much pleased to find how very well I stand work & how my powers of attention & continued effort increase.

It is not attention that the child is seeking, but love.

Attention, if sudden and close, graduates into surprise; and this into astonishment; and this into stupefied amazement.

You create attention to attract attention.
