“I am an extremely wicked-looking vampire but really that’s the whole point.”

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 really love doing yoga. My main ritual is yoga. I do a lot of yoga.

A tiny bit of obscure delicacy written all over her face at all times.

I can’t go anywhere without someone judging me.

I don’t understand the whole dating thing. I know right off the bat if I’m interested in someone, and I don’t want them to waste their money on me and take me out to eat if I know I’m not interested in that person.

I don’t want to pierce anything. I think it’s outdated. Belly rings and all are, like, old.

I’m pretty normal. The type of day I love is just like everybody else’s. I’m like everybody else.

I have always thought that these two ways of talking, one is the fantastic, the fable, the fairy tale, and the other being history, the scholarly study of what happened, I think they’re both amazing ways to understand human nature.

If I dream I have you, I have you, for all our joys are but fantastical.

Among the great struggles of man-good/evil, reason/unreason, etc.-there is also this mighty conflict between the fantasy of Home and the fantasy of Away, the dream of roots and the mirage of the journey.

You know what a miracle is. Not what Bakunin said. But another world’s intrusion into this one. Most of the time we coexist peacefully, but when we do touch there’s cataclysm.

But with a sigh he had released her hand, while she was so lost in the fantasy that she hadn’t felt it go away, as if he’d known the best moment to let go.

For every kind of vampire, there is a kind of cross.

I’ve done about anything I can fantasize about in the cold.

I believe cats to be spirits come to earth. A cat, I am sure, could walk on a cloud without coming through.
