“I’ve learned I’m not lying by not saying anything, so I just don’t say it anymore.”

Loads of my friends are lesbians, and it really annoys me that gay people aren’t allowed to get married in most parts of America. I’d go on a march for gay rights any time.

If God is the DJ, then Life is the dance floor; Love is the rhythm and You are the music.

Long-term relationships are an everyday choice. It’s harder to be in a marriage than it is to bounce from one relationship to the next.

I can turn heartbreak into songs that help other people.

I was a very defensive kid ’cause I was really sensitive underneath and didn’t want people to know. So I came off as very tough and very angry.

On her daughter: And she’s going through all these changes. You know, it’s just crazy times.

The aggressive side of me comes across in my music, but I’m just a sweet girl.

I’m taking my rats. Those are my friends for the tour. Thelma and Louise. They’re so cute.

The problem was, I was labeled as trouble – so I was like, ‘Trouble? I’ll show you trouble. You want trouble, well here it is!’ No matter what label they give you, the best thing you can do is prove them wrong.

The last time I checked, the only difference between my gay friends and I is who we choose to love. I’m not sure how that warrants a loss of rights, but it needs to stop. What ever happened to liberty and justice for all?

I have never really encountered anybody that was rude to me. Well, not to my face anyway.

I will never be a stupid girl… and neither should you. Today, charting your own course isn’t just more necessary than ever before… it’s also much easier — and much more fun. A good education is one of the greatest gifts you could ever give yourself.

I’m about to make people forget about Madonna.

I’ve always felt that animals are the purest spirits in the world. They don’t fake or hide their feelings, and they are the most loyal creatures on Earth. And somehow we humans think we’re smarter-what a joke.

I think you learn more about yourself in the context of a relationship than you can outside of it.

I love the shows that are in dingy little dark clubs, smoky, no production whatsoever.

You never stop loving someone. You just learn to live without them.

I don’t regret any of the life decisions I’ve made in my life because with every choice I’ve made I’ve learned something new.

All that I saw and learned was a new delight to me.

I’ve had a lot of success; I’ve had failures, so I learn from the failure.

Love is one of the most beautiful things in life, but it’s one of the most terrifying. It’s worth the fear because you have more knowledge, experience, you learn from people, and you have memories.

Two key ingredients in any successful chef: a quick learner and someone with a sharp brain.

Learn from your mistakes. Take responsibility and forgive yourself.

A little learning, indeed, may be a dangerous thing, but the want of learning is a calamity to any people.
