“Well, since I’m six years old, I’ve been playing the violin, the piano, I’ve been singing. It’s always been a dream of mine, but I really never had the courage to actually go and do it professionally.”

One night stands are not for me. I think it’s gross when you just give it up.

There’s so many people out there who try to imitate what I do but I am the original.

The best accessories a girl can have are her closest friends.

Barbie is my role model. She might not do anything, but she looks good doing it.

I’m so smart now. Everyone’s always like ‘take your top off’. Sorry, NO! They always want to get that money shot. I’m not stupid.

I’m very intelligent. I’m capable of doing everything put to me. I’ve launched a perfume and want my own hotel chain. I’m living proof blondes are not stupid.

I have this great test to see if a girl’s a real friend. When we’re shopping I’ll pick out an outfit that I know looks hot and one that is awful. If my friend says the bad one looks good, I know she’s not a good friend.

All it takes is one drink to mess with the way you drive – it clouds your judgment and slows your reflexes. Don’t take any chances. It just isn’t worth it.

I’d rather not do anything. Guys want you more when you don’t. Young girls should know that.

I always knew I had a voice and I’ve always known I could sing, but I was too shy to let it come out. I think it’s the hardest thing to do, to sing in front of people. When I finally let go and did it, I realized it’s what I’m most talented at and what I love to do the most.

Never give up on the things that make you smile.

It’s good to just smile and go on with your day.

I didn’t want to be like all these socialites – they sit at home, and go to the debutant ball, and marry some rich guy and that’s it. That’s all they do. I wanted to do my own thing so I could buy whatever I want, do whatever I want.

A true heiress is never mean to anyone – except a girl who steals your boyfriend.

It’s like a kind of Barbie American dream. I have that childlike quality so a lot of little girls especially [like me]. I’ve always been a kid at heart. I think I always will be.

I’ve just always had a boyfriend my whole life, and I’ve – now I’m really focusing on myself and I think that’s more important right now.

We must be neither cowardly nor rash but courageous.

Courage starts with showing up and letting ourselves be seen.

Fear hurries on my tongue through want of courage.

To see what is in front of one’s nose needs a constant struggle.

Friend, have the courage To care little for wealth, and shape yourself, You too, to merit godhead

Women bring the grace of renewal, the embrace of inclusion, and the courage to give of oneself.

It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare.

The memory of the Saints leads us to raise our eyes to Heaven: not to forget the realities of the earth, but to face them with more courage and hope.
