Mariah Carey's quotes

  • [Madison Square Garden, 1995] This is for all of you out there tonight, reaching for a dream - don't ever give up! Never ever listen to anyone, when they try to discourage you, because they do that, believe me!
  • There is a light at the end of the tunnel . . . hopefully it's not a freight train!
  • Music is what I love and it's what I feel and it's in me and to know that I can do something that I enjoy and hopefully bring some enjoyment to other people through what I do is an incrediable feeling and I am just really thankful for it
  • [interview in Hip Hop Magazine] A lot of the time they [the media] form the idea in listeners' minds. Calling me a "pop diva" without listening to my work so when I come out with an urban song it's like, "Pop diva goes black". I mean, puh-lease.
  • Butterflies are always following me, everywhere I go.
  • I'm not one of those people that goes into details of my personal life on national TV to get attention. Some things are better left unsaid
  • A lot of people are singing about how screwed up the world is, and I don't think that everybody wants to hear about that all the time.
  • I'm not vain, I'm insecure.
  • I decided to make my own ski-wear range after I found there were no fashion outfits for me to wear on the piste.
  • It's hard to be someone that people talk about and write about, you know? They don't know me.
  • People all of a sudden just see me and hear me having hit records and it seems to have come out of the blue. But really I have been working towards this my whole life, and this is what I say when people say I haven't paid my dues.
  • There's never been anything else in my life that inspired me at all. It's crazy, but I've always loved music and I've always known this was what I wanted to do. I can't remember a time when I didn't want to be a singer.
  • Someone said I never paid any dues. I feel my whole life was struggling, because we were poor. We were alone, we had nothing--no security. I feel I have paid my dues. I've been paying my dues all my life.
  • I've always said that my father is half black and half Venezuelan and my mother is Irish. But people don't understand. They can't fathom that I'm African-American, Venezuelan and Irish.
  • And maybe there are some people out there who think a quarter Venezuelan is not a lot . . . Well, I may be only one quarter, but it's a strong quarter.
  • There was a time when all I was allowed to do was go to gay clubs, because my quote-unquote husband was so afraid of me being around straight people.
  • [on her glamor influences] Raquel Welch, Ursula Andress--I liked their little ensembles . . . You've got to throw Farrah Fawcett in there, too. I had the Farrah doll. She was my little style inspiration.
  • [on her height] I don't know why, but everybody thinks that I'm short. When they see me for the first time, women are always surprised to be obliged to raise their head.
  • I'd humbly like to become an inspiration to the biracial kids, who are the population of the new millennium. I'm everything and nothing at the same time: white, black and Latino. If I've managed to be accepted, the others can do it, too.
  • I was the world's worst waitress.
  • George Michael, you were such an inspiration. I'm honored to have not only been your fan, but a friend as well. Rest in peace.
  • If you believe in yourself enough and know what you want, you're gonna make it happen.
  • [TRL appearance, 2001] I just want one day off when I can go swimming and eat ice cream and look at rainbows.
  • I know I can be diva-ish sometimes, but I have to be in control. The nature of my life, the nature of what I do, is divadom, it really is.
  • Whatever you're going through in your life, don't ever give up.
  • [L.A. Times, November 1993] It's not easy that everything you do, everybody has to come in and critique it and give their opinion. Sometimes it does help me and sometimes it hurts me as a person. That's life. I have feelings.
