More quotes by Whitney Houston
I've got some good saints out there - that's right - that pray for me constantly. You've gotta have that! You do.
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
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'm just fiercely protective. It's like, that's my lair and nobody messes with my lair.
Whitney Houston
I'm older, I'm matured... I'm looking forward to the years to come. Good years.
Whitney Houston
I've never felt like this in any other country. I feel at home, I feel wonderful

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
You can fool people. You can fool anybody anytime of the day, but you can't fool yourself. At night, when you go home, you've got to be straight up with you.
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 love to sing, but it's just not fun anymore.
Whitney Houston
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.
Whitney Houston
I'm good where I am at this moment.
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
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
If you say my eyes are beautiful, it's because they are looking at you.
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
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
Nobody likes to be picked on. Nobody.
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
I'm proud of being a mother, a wife, a daughter, and a sister, and a lover and a friend We're all God's children.
