“Books have always been important to me – my mom was a first grade teacher, so I grew up reading all the time.”

My happy weight changes. Sometimes I eat more; sometimes I play more. I’ll be different sizes all the time.

By keeping her heart protected, she’ll never ever feel rejected.

Gotta take a risk, take a chance, make a change, and break away. I won’t forget the place I came from.

I don’t love traveling, because I’m never home. It’s hard when you have a family.

I’m actually not a big fan of the word hope. I think it’s a depressing word. I don’t want to hope – I want to know. Like I don’t hope there’s a God, I know there’s a God.

It’s amazing to impact people’s lives – it’s a cool thing to have the spotlight and be able to reassure people, to say, “It’s OK to be you.”

I do cardio. I run. I strength-train using my own body weight. I don’t like free weights, because I build muscle easily.

Now all that’s left of me, is what I pretend to be. So together, but so broken up inside.

As a mom, you just don’t have time, so you get straight to the point.

I’ll spread my wings and I’ll learn how to fly. I’ll do what it takes till I touch the sky.

The question I love to get asked is: ‘What’s the hardest part of your job?’ And literally, the answer is probably real sad, but it’s to just to be me. Like, it’s really hard, because I think people, you know, have a set idea of what a pop star should be.

I’m always going to be a singer.

The thing I love most about going on vacation is that I get to leave behind any kind of schedule. My entire life is scheduled from morning to night, and when I’m on vacation, there is no schedule.

I am just like my mother. She raised me to love and take care of animals, especially the ones that need it the most and so I started Eddie’s Rescue Ranch. We take in animals that need extra care and attention and the animals that get left behind.

Even though I hate acting, I love doing videos for my songs.

Confidence is seen, not heard.

With freedom, flowers, books, and the moon, who could not be perfectly happy?

Leisure without books is death, and burial of a man alive.

Nothing is better than reading and gaining more and more knowledge.

The lack of power to take joy in outdoor nature is as real a misfortune as the lack of power to take joy in books.

What an astonishing thing a book is.

There are three things that grow more precious with age; old wood to burn, old books to read, and old friends to enjoy.

We would be together and have our books and at night be warm in bed together with the windows open and the stars bright.

You can write a book on how to ruin someone’s perfect day.
