I'm not crazy about arenas just because I can sell them out. It doesn't do anything for my ego at all. I want to play places where people don't have to sit in the nosebleed seats and wonder what the hell is going on.

More quotes by Whitney Houston
Nobody likes to be picked on. Nobody.
Whitney Houston
I believe the children are our future
Whitney Houston
I'm tired of people taking off their clothes.
Whitney Houston
I've read about myself and my husband and my family, to the point where they've called my parents, they've called my brothers, offering money to tell stories. They call friends of mine. I'd just like for them to just ... don't badger us. Don't scrutinize us. We have children and they have to live, too. It's not fair.
Whitney Houston
No one makes me do anything I don't want to do.
Whitney Houston
To learn your artistry and to be able to perfect that, is overwhelming. Especially when you are exuding love. The human emotion is a very delicate thing, so you have to be careful about how you present it because it can be kind of scary, or too overwhelming if you're not careful. So I try to just keep it love.
Whitney Houston
My mother taught me that when you stand in the truth and someone tells a lie about you, don't fight it.
Whitney Houston
If I fail, if I succeed, at least I live as I believe.
Whitney Houston
I'd rather be alone than unhappy
Whitney Houston
When I heard Aretha, I could feel her emotional delivery so clearly. It came from down deep within. That's what I wanted to do.
Whitney Houston
I've turned down a lot of arena dates because I've done the big-arena thing. Now, I want to do something where people can feel me and I can feel them.
Whitney Houston
She's my teacher, my adviser, my greatest inspiration.
Whitney Houston
Being around people like Aretha Franklin and Gladys Knight, Dionne Warwick and Roberta Flack, all these greats, I was taught to listen and observe.
Whitney Houston
Crack is cheap. I make too much money to ever smoke crack. Let's get that straight. OK? We don't do crack. We don't do that. Crack is whack.
Whitney Houston
I'm just fiercely protective. It's like, that's my lair and nobody messes with my lair.
Whitney Houston
I believe that children are our future
Whitney Houston
Nobody makes me do anything I don't want to do. It's my decision. So the biggest devil is me. I'm either my best friend or my worst enemy.
Whitney Houston
When the night falls, my lonely heart calls.
Whitney Houston
No, I'm not a drug addict, and neither is my husband. If that were so, you'd get a lot less work out of me. It would show in the performances and in the work.
Whitney Houston
I can tell you that I am not self-destructive. I'm not a person who wants to die. I'm a person who has life, who wants to live. And I always have. And I wouldn't mistake it for anything else other than that.
Whitney Houston
