“I want the deepest, darkest, sickest parts of you that you are afraid to share with anyone because I love you that much.”

“I want you to walk out of here tonight not loving me more, but loving yourselves more.”

“just remember: i love you, and love yourselves. 'cause, little monsters, you were born that way baby.”

“I want women -- and men -- to feel empowered by a deeper and more psychotic part of themselves. The part they're always trying desperately to hide. I want that to become something that they cherish.”

“For all my love little monsters i am your mom you are my child in my hand i protect you like my eyes but dont worry ill cacth you if you fall.”

“Sometimes in life you don't always feel like a winner, but that doesn't mean you're not a winner, you want to be like yourself. I want my fans to know it's okay.”

“Well my music was different in high school; I was singing about love—you know, things I don't care about anymore.”
