“I once woke up at a random guy’s house and i didn’t actually know who he was.”

I’m not great with money. I’d go crazy if I were left to my own devices. My mum and girlfriend sort it out. I’m not driven by it, but I love to be generous.

Even if there’s a tiny tiny chance, isn’t that worth going for it?

My ideas for the future? To take over the world.

When you’re in love you’ll do anything, I’d go to the end of the world.

If you want to do something, Go for it you’ve got nothing to loose.

I’m a very loyal boyfriend. I’m a bit of a joker I can be romantic, but not too sickly.

I had this dream…that we had this new sixth member, for some reason, and he actually ended up being quite horrible! And he started a fight with me! And I wanted him to go away and none of the boys were helping me!

The Story of My Life is drinking cups of tea, eating coco pops and playing Playstation.

I wan’t a girl who is fun and loves adventure.

We’re not perfect, we’re not clean cut. We’re just trying to be ourselves.

Always be nice to people. Whatever how bad they are to you. To show them you are not like them.

I want my first son to be called ‘Tommy.’ It will sound great, Tommy Tomlinson

I quite like American music, like The Fray – I’m a massive fan of them – and The Killers. I also like more acoustic stuff like Ed Sheeran; I like this English songwriter James Morrison and another singer called Ben Howard.

In week one of the X Factor, just to be a little bit quirky, I decided to say that I like girls who eat carrots. Ever since I’ve had lots and lots and lots of carrots.

In my first video diary I explained my love for women who have a taste in carrots. Since then, I have received plenty of carrots. Now I also have a keen interest in women who like Lamborghinis.

I think my mom just filled me with confidence. I just thought I was the best at everything. Like any mother really.

I missed my home – like the physicality of my home, I missed my friends and my family mostly and just hanging out and being in your home country – culturally it feels right and that is what I miss.

The most indespensible ingredient of all good home cooking: love for those you are cooking for.

Go home and write / a page tonight. / And let that page come out of you – / Then, it will be true.

Genealogists live in the past lane.

An opera begins long before the curtain goes up and ends long after it has come down. It starts in my imagination, it becomes my life, and it stays part of my life long after I’ve left the opera house.

The first of the month falls every month, too, North or South. And them white folks who sends bills never forgets to send them-the phone bill, the furniture bill, the water bill, the gas bill, insurance, house rent.

I don’t pretend to be an ordinary housewife.

The moon and sun are travelers through eternity. Even the years wander on. Whether drifting through life on a boat or climbing toward old age leading a horse, each day is a journey, and the journey itself is home.
