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.
When I decided to be a singer, my mother warned me I'd be alone a lot. Basically we all are.
I'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?
I am not self-destructive. I am not a person who wants to die.
My mother was the first singer I had contact with. She sang constantly to us around the house, in church.
I've got some good saints out there - that's right - that pray for me constantly. You've gotta have that! You do.
