More quotes by Whitney Houston
I almost wish I could be more exciting, that I could match what is happening out there to me.
Whitney Houston
I'm an old-fashioned girl. And I love gospel. I like things that lift me up, inspire me.
Whitney Houston
I think over the years, being a mother, I've matured in so many ways.
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 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 the kind of person, if, if I have a day that is nerve-wracking, or my week has been bad or something's going down, I won't eat. Some people eat, I don't eat. And it shows in my physical frame.
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
She's my teacher, my adviser, my greatest inspiration.
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'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 have a mother that's very strong and family that surround me and constantly tell me they love me.
Whitney Houston
When you're feeling full of doubt and fear has got you in a bind, love will save the day.
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
I believe that children are our future
Whitney Houston
I'm either my best friend or my worst enemy.
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
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
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 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
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
