“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 wish my hair was thicker, and I wish my feet were prettier. My toes are really ugly. I wish my ears were smaller. And my nose could be smaller too.

Just because I look sexy on the cover of Rolling Stone doesn’t mean I’m naughty.

If you love yourself, it will all work out.

I guess it’s an okay thing to express yourself.

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.

It is not the world I fear but what becomes of me; when you disappear so understand it is you I cannot sacrifice with you in my life-I’ll suffice.

He who is overly attached to his family members experiences fear and sorrow, for the root of all grief is attachment. Thus one should discard attachment to be happy.

Virtue is more to be feared than vice, because its excesses are not subject to the regulation of conscience.

Fear is faith that it won’t work.

Some women fear the fire. Some women simply become it.

I never placed my head upon the pillow at night without reminding myself that my success might only be temporary.

When Christ becomes our central focus, contentment replaces our anxiety as well as our fears and insecurities.

The mob rushes in where individuals fear to tread.
