More quotes by Whitney Houston
My daughter is my greatest inspiration.
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
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
I'm older, I'm matured... I'm looking forward to the years to come. Good years.
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
God gave me a voice to sing with, and when you have that, what other gimmick is there?
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
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 think over the years, being a mother, I've matured in so many ways.
Whitney Houston
My mother was the first singer I had contact with. She sang constantly to us around the house, in church.
Whitney Houston
Nobody likes to be picked on. Nobody.
Whitney Houston
My name is not Susan, so watch what you say. If you still need her, then be on your way.
Whitney Houston
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.
Whitney Houston
I finally faced the fact that it isn't a crime not having friends. Being alone means you have fewer problems.
Whitney Houston
No one makes me do anything I don't want to do.
Whitney Houston
Sometimes you'll laugh. Sometimes you'll cry. Life never tells us, the when's or why's. When you've got friends, to wish you well. You'll find your point when. You will exhale.
Whitney Houston
If I should die this very day, Don't cry...cause on Earth We wasn't meant to stay.
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.
Whitney Houston
I am not self-destructive. I am not a person who wants to die.
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.
