My hope for the future, not just in the music industry, but in every young girl I meet…is that they all realize their worth and ask for it.

There are beautiful things about both being in love and being out of love. I just think you have to find those things.

For me, genres are a way for people to easily categorize music. But it doesn't have to define you. It doesn't have to limit you.

when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you, you're gonna believe them. And when you're fifteen don't forget to look before you fall. In your life you'll do things greater than dating the boy on the football team. I didn't know it at fifteen.

When I was a little girl I used to read fairy tales. In fairy tales you meet Prince Charming and he's everything you ever wanted. In fairy tales the bad guy is very easy to spot. The bad guy is always wearing a black cape so you always know who he is. Then you grow up and you realize that Prince Charming is not as easy to find as you thought. You realize the bad guy is not wearing a black cape and he's not easy to spot; he's really funny, and he makes you laugh, and he has perfect hair.

The blame is on me...I knew you were trouble when you walked in.

Most of us fear reaching the end of our life regretting moments when we didn't speak up, say I love you, or say I'm sorry.
