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 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
If I should die this very day, Don't cry...cause on Earth We wasn't meant to stay.
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
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 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
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 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 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
You get that love from the people. It lets me know that all the madness I go through, all the stuff that the business has to offer with all its madness it makes it worthwhile.
Whitney Houston
If you say my eyes are beautiful, it's because they are looking at you.
Whitney Houston
I'm an old-fashioned girl. And I love gospel. I like things that lift me up, inspire me.
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 I decided to be a singer, my mother warned me I'd be alone a lot. Basically we all are. Loneliness comes with life.
Whitney Houston
I wanted to be a teacher. I love children, so I wanted to deal with children. Then I wanted to be a veterinarian. But by the age of ten or eleven, when I opened my mouth and said, 'Oh, God, what's this?' I kind of knew teaching and being a veterinarian were gonna have to wait.
Whitney Houston
Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be.
Whitney Houston
No one makes me do anything I don't want to do.
Whitney Houston
I love to sing, but it's just not fun anymore.
Whitney Houston
When you're feeling full of doubt and fear has got you in a bind, love will save the day.
