“I want to be better at being single, and I want to be better at feeling okay about being single. I don’t need a boyfriend.”

Everybody’s born to be different, that’s the one thing that makes us the same.

Owning your curves means being confident – actually being confident – in your own skin. Growing up was tricky for me, it was so hard to shop with all of my friends and not being able to fit into the tiny clothes they were wearing.

Now that I’m famous, guys don’t hit on me.

Art is the colors and textures of your imagination.

Every inch of you is perfect from the bottom to the top. My mama, she told me don’t worry about your size. She says boys like a little more booty to hold at night. Yeah I won’t be no stick figure silicone Barbie doll, so if that’s what you’re into then go ahead and move along.

When I got famous, all of a sudden guys wouldn’t look at me. Period. So I felt a little sad, a little frustrated. Like, What’s going on here? I’ve never been prettier in my life and I’m so cool and successful.

Boys like a little more booty to hold at night.

I tried to go anorexic for a good three hours. I ate ice and celery, but that’s not even anorexic. And I quit. I was like, ‘Ma, can you make me a sandwich? Like, immediately.’

So let’s take our time to say what we want. Use what we got before it’s all gone.

I didn’t know fashion or any of that until the label gave me a stylist.

You know I won’t be no stick-figure, silicone Barbie doll.

If you got beauty, beauty, just raise em up. Cause every inch of you is perfect from the bottom to the top.

If you asked me, ‘What do you want to say?’ it would be, ‘Love yourself more.’

As the CEO running my life, running Meghan Trainor, I have to say ‘no’ to things all the time, and it’s been very uncomfortable and very difficult. I’ve said ‘no’ and it’s actually worked – even when I never thought it would work.

We’ve shared so much laughter, so many tears. We’re a spiritual bond that grows stronger each year. We’re not sisters by birth, but we knew from the start, something put us together to be sisters by heart.

I don’t consider myself a feminist, but I’m down for my first opportunity to say something to the world to be so meaningful. If you asked me, ‘What do you want to say?’ it would be, ‘Love yourself more.’

A good marriage is where both people feel like they’re getting the better end of the deal.

Gratitude creates the most wonderful feeling. It can resolve disputes. It can strengthen friendships. And it makes us better men and women.

I liked you better when you were drunk .

I feel quite proud to be an ambassador for women who realize that being fit is better than being skinny.

New clothes won’t fill the void. Money won’t make you happy. Attention won’t heal past wounds. Things won’t finally make you feel better. If it’s broken its broken. These are distractions from the real work.

Forgiveness is giving up all hope of having had a better past.

You are the most important part of the family. Take care of yourself first. Then you’ll be able to take care of everyone else even better.

It is right that you should begin again every day. There is no better way to complete the spiritual life than to be ever beginning it over again.
