“Does anything really matter? We all end up in the same place. All that’s left is our Wikipedia entry.”

It feels so scary getting old.

Don’t let some random comment that you wouldn’t have even thought about overshadow something important that you were actually trying to say.

The way I dress and carry myself, a lot of people find it intimidating. I think my whole career can be boiled down to the one word I always say in meetings: strength.

I’ve totally learned in this process that 99% of the time, your gut is right, and you know what’s right for you. I know exactly what’s right for my career and for my art, and sometimes, even if the whole room is saying, ‘Don’t do that, don’t do that,’ you know that doing that is going to be good for you, in the long run.

Like wildflowers you must allow yourself to grow in all the places people thought you never would.

Don’t be afraid. Be the kind of person your mother warned you about.

Two things to remember in life: take care of your thoughts when you are alone, and take are of your words when you are with people.

The smarter the person, the more boring the instagram account.

People have told me that Ive helped them feel confident, like they can say things they want to say. They can talk about feminism in class without people calling them a lesbian. Thats so amazing that I can make someone feel like that.

I do not need someone to complete me, but if you wanted to, we could walk next to each other into whatever is coming next.

David Bowie told me my music sounds like tomorrow

We’re so happy, even when we’re smiling out of fear.

Everyone’s competing for a love they won’t receive.

I love thrift shopping. You can get ten things because everything costs, like, three dollars.

Of course I got lipstick all over my lil’ nose in about 5 seconds, nothing’s changed.

I’m terrified of growing up. Once you become an adult, how to you step back from that? It’s something that wakes me up at night.

Insult me all you want. Judge me as much as you want. Say what you think, everything you want. But one thing. Dont touch my fans.

Thanks to my fans that have been with me from the beginning, I was able to sell out arenas on my own.

It’s an immense amount of pressure, celebrity itself.

Hollywood life is never true. Ever.

I draw from the crowd a lot.

There are the people who really, really enjoy being celebrities, and then there are the people who came by it maybe by accident.

My fans are everything to me, I love them.

I was born to be a leader. I love the fact that millions of people look up to me.
