You can fool people. You can fool anybody anytime of the day, but you can’t fool yourself. At night, when you go home, you’ve got to be straight up with you.
WHITNEY HOUSTONYou can fool people. You can fool anybody anytime of the day, but you can’t fool yourself. At night, when you go home, you’ve got to be straight up with you.
WHITNEY HOUSTONWhen you’re feeling full of doubt and fear has got you in a bind, love will save the day.
WHITNEY HOUSTONNobody likes to be picked on. Nobody.
WHITNEY HOUSTONI finally faced the fact that it isn’t a crime not having friends. Being alone means you have fewer problems.
WHITNEY HOUSTONSometimes you’ll laugh. Sometimes you’ll cry. Life never tells us, the when’s or why’s. When you’ve got friends, to wish you well. You’ll find your point when. You will exhale.
WHITNEY HOUSTONI love to sing, but it’s just not fun anymore.
WHITNEY HOUSTONI was aware of people staring at me. No one moved. They seemed almost in trance. I just stared at the clock in the center of the church. When I finished, everyone clapped and started crying.
WHITNEY HOUSTONLet the children’s laughter remind us how we used to be.
WHITNEY HOUSTONI’m not crazy about arenas just because I can sell them out. It doesn’t do anything for my ego at all. I want to play places where people don’t have to sit in the nosebleed seats and wonder what the hell is going on.
WHITNEY HOUSTONI feel so blessed to just have done what I had done. To be able to just use what God has given me is a blessing. You know, never mind the Grammys, never mind the records, never mind all of that. Just to be able to sing.
WHITNEY HOUSTONWhat’s in your soul is in your soul.
WHITNEY HOUSTONMy mother was the first singer I had contact with. She sang constantly to us around the house, in church.
WHITNEY HOUSTONI’ve always been a thin girl. I’m not going to be fat, ever. Let’s get that straight. Whitney is not going to be fat, ever. Okay?
WHITNEY HOUSTONNever let your heart take precedence over reason, otherwise you will have problems.
WHITNEY HOUSTONI have priorities. Maintaining my daughter is my first.
WHITNEY HOUSTONNo, I’m not a drug addict, and neither is my husband. If that were so, you’d get a lot less work out of me. It would show in the performances and in the work.
