Anything you put your mind to and add your imagination into can make your life a lot better and a lot more fun.

I can't deal with someone wanting to take a relationship backward or needing space or cheating on you. It's a conscious thing; it's a common-sense thing.

No matter what happens in life, be good to people. Being good to people is a wonderful legacy to leave behind.

My ultimate goal is to end up being happy. Most of the time.

Faith Hill is a big role model.

If you're yelling you're the one who's lost control of the conversation.

I think fearless is having fears but jumping anyway.

I don't compare myself to anyone else; I don't make comments about anyone else because they do what feels right for them, and that's okay by me.

I think the perfection of love is that it's not perfect.

We don't need to share the same opinions as others, but we need to be respectful.

Red is such an interesting color to correlate with emotion, because it's on both ends of the spectrum. On one end you have happiness, falling in love, infatuation with someone, passion, all that. On the other end, you've got obsession, jealousy, danger, fear, anger and frustration.

I love making new friends and I respect people for a lot of different reasons.

Relationships are like traffic lights. And I just have this theory that I can only exist in a relationship if it's a green light.

I love the scents of winter! For me, it's all about the feeling you get when you smell pumpkin spice, cinnamon, nutmeg, gingerbread and spruce.

Some days I totally appreciate everything that's happening to me, and some days I feel everyone's waiting for me to mess up.

You have people come into your life shockingly and surprisingly. You have losses that you never thought you'd experience. You have rejection and you have learn how to deal with that and how to get up the next day and go on with it.

All of my favorite people — people I really trust — none of them were cool in their younger years.

Vanity can apply to both insecurity and egotism.

Songs are my diaries; they always have been. You have to put your trust in everyone because putting down those real, personal details and thoughts that make a song authentic also opens you right up. I am constantly misunderstood; a lot of people just don't get me.

At some point, you grow out of being attracted to that flame that burns you over and over and over again.
