More quotes by Ellie Goulding
I'm obsessed with the countryside: woods, forests, fields, lakes, mountains. I'm really into folk music and folklore. But more so I'm into electronic music. I'm into bands that have both aspects, like Boards of Canada is a perfect example. You could listen to that type of music running through a woods. It's kind of what I wanted to achieve.

I would never create an image for myself I'm not that clever.

I got approached by SoBe a few months ago about being an ambassador and I learned about the previous ones including Naomi Campbell, so I was instantly interested! Then I tried and really liked it. It's different and has interesting flavours... we don't have anything like it in the U.K.

I got a random tattoo the other day. It's a red triangle, which makes everyone think I'm arty, which I'm not. I used to draw red triangles all the time. It must mean something - maybe I don't know it yet. But I'll figure it out.

Christmas in L.A. is weird. There's no snow. It's not even cold.

I believe that when you have fans, they invest in you not just as a singer but as a person as well. It's not enough to just have good songs and a good voice.
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.

I've learned not to let it be the end of the world if a boy doesn't like you. I used to put so much effort into boys. I started playing guitar because I wanted to impress this boy. Then, I ended up in love with guitar and I didn't care about the boy anymore.
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.
Ellie Goulding
When you reach a point of no return with someone and you feel there's going to be no reconciliation, you have to disconnect. I can't allow myself to be emotionally connected with people like that again, it's too damaging.
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 don't really have a style icon but I really admire the way people dress like Gaga, Rihanna and Gwen Stefani. It's good to be inspired by singers who write music and dress incredibly - rather than models and people in the fashion industry who dress immaculately anyway because it's their style.
Ellie Goulding
I never thought that I could make a living out of my voice, to be completely honest. I thought that I could probably keep playing pubs. And it was exciting for me to get even just a pub gig in my town or country, when I went to university.
Ellie Goulding
I was the first person to go to university from my family.
Ellie Goulding
My mum was too busy raising four of us to encourage my hopes. But I'm glad I had the upbringing I did. It made me a worrier and a thoughtful, curious person.

My favourite people to follow on Twitter are... my fans. They make me laugh so much and keep me smiling.
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
I wrote a lot of poetry that was based on stories of the sea and I was really inspired by that.
Ellie Goulding
One of the most powerful feelings in the world is after a really, really long run.
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.
