“I want to be an artist that everyone can relate to, that’s young, happy, and fun.”

With love, you should go ahead and take the risk of getting hurt because love is an amazing feeling.

I remember I read this harsh review about my show, and one of my friends told me that this was the exact same stuff people said about Madonna. And it’s like, she didn’t care. Madonna just came out and was herself. I respect that a lot.

You’ll Never See It My Way Because You’re Not Me!

Everything happens for a reason.

I’m not at the point where I’d feel safe in a house alone. I would be really scared. I’m the kind of person that when I get up to go use the bathroom I have this big long hallway, and I just know someone’s going to jump out and get me.

I like meeting all my fans and signing autographs, although it can all get a bit crazy. Yesterday, for example, a boy just came over and planted a big kiss on my face! I was like, Hello?

When you’re comfortable with someone you love, silence is the best.

I don’t really have time to sit down and write. But when I think of a melody, I call up my answering machine and sing it, so I won’t forget it.

I have come back  [to the music scene] so many times, people are just like, Is this another one? It’s kind of like a joke to me now.

Always be careful dealing with your cards when you have a queen of hearts in your mind.

I have to live my life. I have a family and I just think it’s absurd to let other people influence the way you live.

I’ve always followed my heart and pursued my dreams, and I imagine that people find it inspiring.

Being famous is just a job.

I’m a very private person. Sometimes I’m in denial that I’m really famous.

I just sing what I’m feeling at the time and hope my fans will like that and appreciate that.

I go out with friends, but I don’t have time to get in trouble.

Immersing ourselves in art and the immeasurable through being allows us a more truthful experience of the world.

The local is the only universal, upon that all art is built.

Nature is beautiful because it looks like Art; and Art can only be called beautiful if we are conscious of it as Art while yet it looks like Nature.

Art is purposiveness without purpose.

Poetically dwells man upon this earth.

To catch a husband is an art; to hold him is a job.

It does not follow, that because a particular work of art succeeds in charming us, its creator also deserves our admiration.

I am a museum full of art but you had your eyes shut.
