I started writing poetry when I was six. I had this teacher who didn't believe the poems I'd bring in were mine because they were dark and sad. But I wrote about what I experienced in my childhood.

More quotes by 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
There's a hero, If you look inside your heart
Mariah Carey
Right now Jack lives with me. Jack is my Jack Russell. I also have a Yorkie named Ginger, but Jack and Ginger can't be in the same place at the same time because she is very jealous. Even if Jack's not in the same state, she would growl if she heard his name.
Mariah Carey
My father identified as a black man. No one asked him because he was clearly black. But people always ask me. If we were together, people would look at us in a really strange way. It sucked. As a little girl I had blond hair and they'd look at me, look at him, and be disgusted.
Mariah Carey
Standing alone,eager to just believe,it's good enough to be what you really are,but in your heart,uncertainty forever lies,and you'll always be,somewhere on the outside.
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 don't want a boyfriend just for the sake of it. I don't trust most people out there. There's too much at risk and I don't need to be a notch on somebody's bedpost. I'll flirt with you all night long, but then it's buh, bye!
Mariah Carey
I'm so thankful that I've received The answer that heaven has sent down to me You treated me kind Sweet destiny And I'll be eternally grateful
Mariah Carey
She smiles through a thousand tears, and harbors adolescent fears. She dreams of all that she can never be, she wades in insecurity.
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
I'm the queen of festivities, that's all I can say.
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
One doesn't remain a teenager forever.
Mariah Carey
You don't have to be doing vocal acrobatics or singing all over the scale to have soul.
Mariah Carey
I am thinking of you in my sleepless solitude tonight.
Mariah Carey
I try not to be a jerk. I really do. I try to be nice and cordial.
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.
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
You can fight against people, and fight to the death, but ... can't control the world.
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.
