I've just always been very aware and careful of everything, so that I can be ready for the perfect opportunities as they come. I don't take anything for granted or wait for anything to come to me.

More quotes by Katy Perry
I crushed on the most popular guy in school! I saw him at a concert and I shouted out, Is that Shane Lopes? You were the most popular guy in my class, but you never wanted to go out with me. Instead it was Amanda Wayne. What are you thinking now?
Katy Perry
When I kissed a girl, nobody was around. So I didn't do it for anybody. I'm not a lesbian. I encourage anybody to try anything, just make sure you have integrity and character. It doesn't matter who anyone loves. I am for gay rights and I also have a boyfriend.
Katy Perry
I think you become more relatable when you're vulnerable.
Katy Perry
People love the idea of a good girl gone bad, thinking that my parents were so strict and disowned me, but that actually wasn't the case. Even though they don't necessarily agree with some of the things I do, they love me as their daughter. That's always been their perspective.
Katy Perry
Kids are so smart these days. They sense when there's a phony bologna out there. Especially in music, when they see something that's being marketed to them, they'll call it out. They'll be like, This chick is bullshit.
Katy Perry
Be yourself and you can be anything.
Katy Perry
With songs, I've always pledged to be honest. I write my songs because I've lived them.
Katy Perry
I can feel a phoenix inside of me. I can see the heavens but I still hear the flames calling out my name.
Katy Perry
I was being musically mentored by a lot of people who were obviously more talented and skilled than I was, and I thought that I would just kind of learn the ropes of songwriting there - like how to do acoustic, country-esque songs, which I like because there's so much story in them.
Katy Perry
People tried to do a lot of stuff with me early in my career where they tried to shape me into one thing or another. They couldn't just take the chance and go with my vision - which was just my intuition, really.
Katy Perry
I'm not defined by where I came from.
Katy Perry
They think that I was like Amy Grant, when actually no! The label went bankrupt and maybe sold a couple hundred records and that's about it. I was just trying different things.
Katy Perry
I never want to be just one thing - I want to be multidimensional.
Katy Perry
I really love going to shows where I'm sandwiched between people, and you don't know if the sweat on you is yours or the person's next to you.
Katy Perry
I just want to make it very clear that I come from very humble beginnings, and I worked for everything!
Katy Perry
You can't be a full tranny every day of the week that's an exaggerated part of my personality.
Katy Perry
I'm kind of a good girl - and I'm not. I'm a good girl because I really believe in love, integrity, and respect. I'm a bad girl because I like to tease. I know that I have sex appeal in my deck of cards. But I like to get people thinking. That's what the stories in my music do.
Katy Perry
I really like to look like a history book. I can look 1940s, I can look 1970s hippie-chic, or sometimes I'll pull that '80s Brooklyn hip-hop kid with the door-knocker earrings.
Katy Perry
Everyone related to me in my circle was from church: church friends, church school, church activities. All my friends weren't allowed to watch MTV or go to PG-13 movies or listen to the radio, so I didn't really know anything different. That's how I was raised.
Katy Perry
A lot of the time people don't even know what they want until they see something new.
