In grammar school some of the girls had problems with me. My face was too light. My hair was too long. It was the black-consciousness period, and I felt really bad.

More quotes by Whitney Houston
I believe that children are our future. Teach them well and let them lead the way. Show them all the beauty they possess inside.
Whitney Houston
I don't like it when they [media critics] see me as this little person who doesn't know what to do with herself -- like I have no idea what I want, like I'm just a puppet ... That's demeaning to me, because that ain't how it is, and it never was.
Whitney Houston
I believe the children are our future
Whitney Houston
If I fail, if I succeed, at least I live as I believe.
Whitney Houston
I was aware of people staring at me. No one moved. They seemed almost in trance. I just stared at the clock in the center of the church. When I finished, everyone clapped and started crying.
Whitney Houston
When the night falls, my lonely heart calls.
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
I like being a woman, even in a man's world. After all, men can't wear dresses, but we can wear the pants.
Whitney Houston
I think over the years, being a mother, I've matured in so many ways.
Whitney Houston
I wish to you, joy and happiness. But above all this, I wish you love
Whitney Houston
I've got a good man. He takes care of me. I don't have to be scared of anything because I know he will kick every ass... disrespect him and you've got a problem.
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
I almost wish I could be more exciting, that I could match what is happening out there to me.
Whitney Houston
My daughter is my greatest inspiration.
Whitney Houston
My mother sang with me in her stomach I sang with Bobbi Kris in my stomach. I believe the child starts to develop within, and whatever you read, whatever you think, whatever you do affects the child.
Whitney Houston
I believe that children are our future
Whitney Houston
You don't have a baby based on that publicity madness. People don't live like that. Especially black people who were raised in families with morals and standards and integrity.
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 feel so blessed to just have done what I had done. To be able to just use what God has given me is a blessing. You know, never mind the Grammys, never mind the records, never mind all of that. Just to be able to sing.
Whitney Houston
She's my teacher, my adviser, my greatest inspiration.
