“I’ve done a lot of bad things. Use your imagination.”

I’m really happy to be on the cover as a strong female who has created her own career.

I love the Seahawks because of Russell [Wilson] and I think that I’m going to probably go for them!

I wanted it to be like Amy Grant, but it didn’t plan out that way. My label actually went bankrupt, and I was left without a home.

I think you become more relatable when you’re vulnerable.

Don’t care what people gonna think of you, do what you wanna do and seek just your happiness.

The hotter the fire the purer the gold is.

The past is like a handful of dust. It filters through your fingers, disappearing little by little. I wish, for one day, I could go back. In another life, I would do things differently.

I’m okay with having bad dance moves. I’m okay with having horrible lower teeth. That’s what makes me me, and for some reason, it’s worked out all right.

Recycle those nerves and make their adrenaline.

Acceptance is the key to be truly free.

If people want a role model, they can have Miley Cyrus!

Find out what your gift is and nurture it.

My dad would give me $10, which is a lot of money when you’re 9, to sing at church, on tables at restaurants, at family functions, just about anywhere.

I unfortunately still crave chicken McNuggets and bacon, which is the meat candy of the world.

I don’t care what people say about my relationship; I don’t care what they say about my boobs. People are buying my songs; I have a sold-out tour. I’m getting incredible feedback from my music.

Now it’s clear to me/ that everything you see/ ain’t always what it seems.

No one can decide what you should do, what course of action you should take to get where you wanna go, except for yourself.

Never question another man’s motive. His wisdom, yes, but not his motives.

We are all affecting the world every moment, whether we mean to or not. Our actions and states of mind matter, because we are so deeply interconnected with one another.

Take time to deliberate, but when the time for action comes, stop thinking and go in.

If you want a thing done well, do it yourself.

It is my wish to fill every moment of my time with some action of the mind which may contribute to the pleasure or the improvement of my fellow creatures.

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.

Waiting for the 100 percent right and certain solution leads to delay, indecision, and an inability to execute.
