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.

More quotes by Whitney Houston
Growing around great musicians, you just can't help it. I identified with it immediately. It was something that was so natural to me that when I started singing, it was almost like speaking.
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
I'd rather be alone than unhappy
Whitney Houston
There can be miracles when you believe.
Whitney Houston
I know that I could really kill for my daughter. I know because I'm living for her, so I'm fierce when it comes down to it. And I feel the same about my husband and my family. I'm just fiercely protective. It's like, that's my lair and nobody messes with my lair.
Whitney Houston
I've always been a thin girl. I'm not going to be fat, ever. Let's get that straight. Whitney is not going to be fat, ever. Okay?
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
I broke my heart for every gain, to taste the sweet I faced the pain.
Whitney Houston
I believe that children are our future

Whitney Houston
I'm either my best friend or my worst enemy.
Whitney Houston
I almost wish I could be more exciting, that I could match what is happening out there to me.
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'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
If I fail, if I succeed, at least I live as I believe.
Whitney Houston
I'm just fiercely protective. It's like, that's my lair and nobody messes with my lair.
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
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 would stay in my room for days, for days at times, just trying to get it together, to know what my next phase was going to be.
Whitney Houston
