The nature of how we are as human beings is that we're much more interested in being critical rather than praising something.

More quotes by Ellie Goulding
It's so important to take vitamins. People always get ill on tour because of the close proximity in the bus with everyone.
Ellie Goulding
I wrote a lot of poetry that was based on stories of the sea and I was really inspired by that.
Ellie Goulding
I still love the skinny jeans thing and I wear my favorite leather jacket constantly. I like being kind of a rock star. I love that I can feel comfortable in a small dress or I can feel comfortable wearing a baggy T-shirt.
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
My favourite people to follow on Twitter are... my fans. They make me laugh so much and keep me smiling.
Ellie Goulding
I've never wanted to be a star, I never wanted to be a famous person or anything like that, and I think my fans know that as well.
Ellie Goulding
I started getting these attacks in 2009, just as my music career was taking off. I'd be doing photo-shoots and started to feel like I was having heart attacks. Increasingly I found it difficult to step outside my flat. Things started to get better after I saw a therapist, who told me I needed to make peace with my panic attacks.
Ellie Goulding
Not much shocked me. You know, I worked in a home for Alzheimer's patients and my dad used to be really into murders and stuff, so I saw dead bodies. It desensitised me to a lot of things.
Ellie Goulding
Well, on tour I eat terribly, so I balance that by running a lot. And then I started to run with my fans in certain cities. It sounds very nerdy and un-rock n' roll, but I like it. It's fun, and it's better than meeting fans in weird, awkward circumstances. So I take them running with me.
Ellie Goulding
I guess I started running when I was about 18 and... I feel like it assists my creativity a bit because it completely just flushes everything out.
Ellie Goulding
I've changed the way I look a bit but not intentionally. I've cut my hair. I've got a bit of pink in it and lately I've become a bit monochrome, wearing a lot of black and white.
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
Every so often I'll go back down to earth and I'll make reference to a phone or a house or something, something that's a bit more real. But I suppose what that does, is it puts you in a surreal place but also my music doesn't get too carried away in that sense, which I quite like.
Ellie Goulding
I can fall in love in a simple way, but I can dissect it in such an intense fashion when it ends.
Ellie Goulding
I've just become quite fixated on the idea of calmness and peacefulness somewhere, someday.
Ellie Goulding
I think, it is a challenge to get critics or whoever to see past what you wear and makeup and the way you look and just concentrate on the music.
Ellie Goulding
I record stuff all the time, like little vocal things. I write random things down... Sometimes I just get things stuck in my head and I record them, and that actually becomes a song quite a lot of the time.
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
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
I take inspiration from everything around me, also relationships and friends. And the inside of my crazy head.
