More quotes by Mariah Carey
Only once in a lifetime love rushes in, changing you with the tide.
Mariah Carey
I don't mind being compared to Whitney (Houston), there are people miles worse to be compared to.
Mariah Carey
I prayed very hard for this to happen and it happened. I don't even think about what I've achieved, I haven't focused on it and I wish I had, because I really want to enjoy it, and I don't know if I am enjoying it, because I am going through my life like a bulldozer. I still haven't marveled at it.
Mariah Carey
See, I'm looking for a man that'll rub me slow, make me sing real high when he goes down low.
Mariah Carey
I'm not for the villains, I'm only for the princesses. I mean it's fun to have Jafar [Aladdin cartoon villain] or whatever I didn't even remember their names 'cause they're not important to me.
Mariah Carey
Heartbroken and in tears over the shocking death of my friend, the incomparable Ms. Whitney Houston. My heartfelt condolences to Whitney's family and to all her millions of fans throughout the world. She will never be forgotten as one of the greatest voices to ever grace the earth.
Mariah Carey
I'm far from perfect. I'm still learning. I overworked myself, and I paid the price. I consider the breakdown a breakthrough. I needed to hit rock bottom. I needed to understand the cost of pushing so hard fighting so hard against the system.
Mariah Carey
I want to collaborate with me 'cause I've done so many collaborations that after a certain point unless you're really working with a certain caliber of an artist, there's no point [to collaborate].
Mariah Carey
This is for all of you out there tonight, reaching for a dream - don't ever give up! Never ever listen to anyone, when they try to discourage you, because they do that, believe me!
Mariah Carey
I love all holiday music. My two favorites would probably be Donny Hathaway's This Christmas and Nat King Cole's The Christmas Song. They epitomize Christmas for me. Those two recordings will never be touched. That's why I've never redone them.
Mariah Carey
Something in your eyes captured my soul, and every night I see you in my dreams. You're all I know. I can't let go.
Mariah Carey
I'm experimenting with my voice. Every day I do different things with it, and if I feel it's appropriate I do it on the record.
Mariah Carey
It seems as though I've always been,somebody outside looking in,well, here I am for all of them to bleed,but they can't take my heart from me,and they can't bring me to my knees,they'll never know the real me.
Mariah Carey
You don't have to be doing vocal acrobatics or singing all over the scale to have soul.
Mariah Carey
I'm not great at putting my hair into a bun, but I'll do it if I have to.
Mariah Carey
I always felt like the rug could be pulled out from under me at anytime. And coming from a racially mixed background, I always felt like I didn't really fit in anywhere.
Mariah Carey
I love Frosty the Snowman. My family and I like to go on a sleigh ride with a two-horse sleigh in Aspen, so we all scream different songs at the top of our lungs. I hope it doesn't scare the horses.
Mariah Carey
I still listen to older music a lot more than new singers. I listen to whatever's on the radio, but when I want to listen to something that moves me I put on a Stevie Wonder record.
Mariah Carey
Being a mother is probably the hardest job in the world. I feel like, in a lot of ways, children come into the world to teach us.
Mariah Carey
My heart has never been broken, I've never broken anyone else's.
Mariah Carey
