The only really safe thing to do is to write a diary of where you've been, what time you went to bed, what you ate. If I wrote honestly about everything I think it'd be a disaster. It would cause a lot of trouble.

More quotes by Ellie Goulding
I wish I could have hung out with Patti Smith in the seventies, and also have some crazy times.
Ellie Goulding
After shows my face feels dirty with makeup and sweat, especially in the smaller venues, so it feels good to get back to the bus and smooth it away. Sometimes you need something alcohol-based, especially on tour when you don't always get a chance to keep washing your face all the time.
Ellie Goulding
Fame doesn't make it hard to date, because I could be seeing someone now and no-one would know. But if you go out with someone who's in the public eye you're asking for trouble. It's double intensity, double scrutiny. Even if I just went on one date with a normal guy, word gets around and that freaks me out. I don't like all that gossipy stuff.
Ellie Goulding
Ever since I've been young I've been fascinated by the human body. I've written songs about it, but you can become quite morbid if you think about it too much - paranoid and a hypochondriac.
Ellie Goulding
By the time I got writing 'Halcyon,' I was on a roll, and I realized I had so much to write about, I realized I had so much built up inside that I couldn't really alleviate before, and then all of a sudden it was like reservoir burst.
Ellie Goulding
I'd just like to think that there's some kind of underworld where whoever's been lost at sea is there... I dunno, there probably isn't, but I'd like to believe there is.
Ellie Goulding
Something funny always happens in every show in the UK and I genuinely love touring the UK because it's where I'm from. I just get a warm feeling when I'm home.
Ellie Goulding
I wrote 'Lights' a long, long time ago. And I expected it to be on the album, because it was - I wrote it with 'Biff' Stannard. And he wrote every single Spice Girls song and every single pop song of the 90s, basically. So I thought, you know, I was really lucky to work with him, but I didn't think it would be a big song for some reason.
Ellie Goulding
I would like to be mates with Richard Branson because I've hung out with him and he is just the loveliest person and obviously a very rich guy and has a lot of stuff going on, but he's actually a really, really sound person, and he's really positive and he's got a really good energy, so I'd like to hang out with him a bit more.
Ellie Goulding
I think that one day I won't have any kind of... sort of, or it will be either way, I won't have to think about anything. But at the moment, god I think probably because of what I do and the nature of how it is, I'm all over the place all of the time.
Ellie Goulding
I feel more confident if my makeup looks good.
Ellie Goulding
How long will I love you? As long as stars are above you, And longer if I may
Ellie Goulding
When I heard Bjork's debut, that was when I first realized that I could be a singer, even with my unusual voice.
Ellie Goulding
Now, if some panic hits me, you have to sort of be friends with your body, it's like your body will work against you.
Ellie Goulding
Bjork, I'd love to do something with her. I'd love to do some sort of crazy orchestral choir thing with her.
Ellie Goulding
I love prints of skulls and bones and have some taxidermy - a crow and a rabbit - to remind me of home. I like art and have a big portrait of Bjork.
Ellie Goulding
The very first song I wrote was about a boy that I was obsessed with.
Ellie Goulding
It's usually a big kind of vent of frustration or anger or sadness that puts me in the right frame of mind to write. It's such a cliche to say that artists write when they're down, but it's true for me. It's a relief to get out what's eating away at my heart or my soul or my head.
Ellie Goulding
You never know what to expect. You don't just walk on and expect an amazing reaction.
Ellie Goulding
The nature of how we are as human beings is that we're much more interested in being critical rather than praising something.
