If you look inside yourself, and you believe, you can be your own hero.
Mariah Carey

Mariah Carey
I can't wear flat shoes. My feet repel them. I was in agony. My high heels had left my feet bleeding. Laugh all you want, my feet hurt
Mariah Carey
So many I considered, closest to me,turned on a dime and sold me out dutifully,although that knife was chipping away at me,they turned their eyes away and went home to sleep.
Mariah Carey
I look around and see the things I have, and I remember not having them. That is one thing that keeps me grounded. I'm definitely the same person I was. . . . I never lose me, I never lose the real person.
Mariah Carey

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
People are constantly asking me if I'm pregnant, but I don't like to talk about it too much. I just think about it as the next phase. We'll see.
Mariah Carey
One doesn't remain a teenager forever.
Mariah Carey
I used to be able to slim down just by exercising more, but that's changed.
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
I still get nervous sometimes before performing.
Mariah Carey
We've all been influenced by other people...If Minnie Riperton never existed, would I have even thought of singing in that (upper) register? I doubt it.
