“I don’t want people kissing my butt. If I had a bad show and I know it, don’t tell me I had a good show. I hate that. I guess because I’m 17, people think I don’t see stuff like that.”

I have always been heavily involved in every album I have ever made. I’m very stubborn when it comes to recording and will only record songs I love, which is why it takes me a long time to make an album.

Performing is my therapy, to become different people onstage.

England is one of my favorite places. The fans are just so crazy.

My life has always been very speculated, watched, and judged really my whole life.

Love is love! People should be able to do whatever makes them happy!

Devil is in the details.

Christina Aguilera and I are friends no matter what the media makes up.

I’m attracted to guys who are really confident and make conversation.

Onstage I’m the happiest person in the world.

I notice that if there are some times I’ve been stressed because I’m human and stress about things, that affects your kids. So you have to make sure you’re a happy mom so they can be happy.

I need to make mistakes, just to learn (who I am)

For me, success isn’t a state of mind. I feel like success isn’t about conquering something; it’s being happy with who you are.

I’m still the same person I’ve always been.

I get to go to overseas places, like Canada.

It’s no secret I’m a shy person.

I have no regrets. I find everything happens for a reason and the reason why maybe this is happening is I won’t take BS from anyone. And I think it’s making me stand out on my own and be very independent and fight for what I believe in.

I am the most jealous boy in the world, when I’m with my girlfriend. I always kiss her so that the other guys know she’s mine

Some men like a dull life – they like the routine of eating breakfast, going to work, coming home, petting the dog, watching TV, kissing the kids, and going to bed. Stay clear of it – it’s often catching.

He who kisses joy as it flies by will live in eternity’s sunrise.

The sweetest thing I’ve ever known was like the kiss on the collarbone.

Oh to be a pear tree – any tree in bloom! With kissing bees singing of the beginning of the world!

I appreciate subtlety. I have never enjoyed a kiss in front of the camera. There’s nothing to it except not getting your lipstick smeared.

It’s times like this when it’s over a year later and I’m still crying over you that I want to turn to you and say: See – This is why I asked you never to kiss me.

Written kisses don’t reach their destination, rather they are drunk on the way by the ghosts.
