I told my mom, 'I'm not buying another magazine until I can get past this thought of looking like the girl on the cover'. She said, "Miley, you are the girl on the cover,' and I was, like, 'I know, but I don't feel like that girl every day.' You can't always feel perfect.

The dreams that you hold for your future are what you dream about at night. They’re always at the back of your mind. They’re what your heart desires. They keep you going. Accept reality and have a backup plan, but always follow your dreams no matter what.

Do what you are afraid to do.

I'm representing women in a cool way

I have four shelves covered with journals that I've written. Dad and I are writing songs together. I've probably written 100 songs.

I don't want to know what people are doing. Like, I don't need to know who's got a new music video and who's got a new lipstick.

People are like, "Oh, I want to make your eyes almond." I don't have almond eyes! Why are you trying to change my eye shape?
