This is for all of you out there tonight, reaching for a dream – don’t ever give up! Never ever listen to anyone, when they try to discourage you, because they do that, believe me!

MARIAH CAREYI know I can be diva-ish sometimes, but I have to be in control. The nature of my life, the nature of what I do, is divadom, it really is.
MARIAH CAREYIt’s not easy that everything you do, everybody has to come in and critique it and give their opinion. Sometimes it does help me and sometimes it hurts me as a person. That’s life. I have feelings.
MARIAH CAREYIt’s a long road when you face the world alone, when no one reaches out a hand for you to hold. You can find love if you search within your soul, and the emptiness you felt will disappear.
MARIAH CAREYWhatever you’re going through in your life, don’t ever give up.
MARIAH CAREYI think one of the reasons I pushed myself so hard and worked so hard is because I never felt special.
MARIAH CAREYOnly once in a lifetime love rushes in, changing you with the tide.
MARIAH CAREYA lot of people are singing about how screwed up the world is, and I don’t think that everybody wants to hear about that all the time.
MARIAH CAREYIf you see me as just the princess then you misunderstand who I am and what I have been through.
MARIAH CAREYPregnancy was probably the best and the hardest thing I’ll ever go through. I know for a lot of women, it can be wonderful and relatively easy.
MARIAH CAREYI’ve seen the real extreme diva behaviour and I don’t think that’s who I am.
MARIAH CAREYWe’ve been expected to be perfect but we aren’t. We’re still human.
MARIAH CAREYThe best part of making music, for me, is collaborating and working with new people and fresh sounds and all those things that get people excited to continue in this business that we all love so much.
MARIAH CAREYI’m really fortunate. I’m really happy, and I’m really really lucky to be where I am.
MARIAH CAREYOne day I promised God that if he would give me my voice back I would never smoke again. I got three octaves back after quitting.
MARIAH CAREYIt’s hard to be someone that people talk about and write about, you know? They don’t know me.
