Miley Cyrus

I think I am a pretty good sister.

I'm a bit of a tomboy.

People like controversy because that's what sells.

My life won't be a series of either/ors - musician or actor, rock or country, straitlaced or rebellious, this or that, yes or no. The real choices in life aren't that simple.

There's no right or wrong, success or failure.

You don't have to go out and party every night. You can act because it's your dream.

There are so many people that have come up to me during our shows and tell me: 'The hour that we are watching your show is the hour that my kids are happiest and are smiling, they are laughing,' and that is what I long to do.

I think my dad is a lot cooler than other dads. He still acts like he's still 17.

I need more friends. It's kind of like my quest right now just to have more true friends.

I am not very good at keeping secrets at all! If you want your secret kept do not tell me!

My dad says I could sing before I could talk, if that's possible. I was always humming and things like that.

The best part of my carreer is getting to meet so many different people, because I learn so much from everyone.

I've got high standards when it comes to boys. As my dad says, all girls should! I'm from the South - Tennessee, to be exact - and down there, we're all about southern hospitality. I know that if I like a guy, he better be nice, and above all, my dad has to approve of him!

A true friend is someone who is always there during the ups and downs, I actually have a song called 'True Friend'.

I probably have an earlier curfew than anyone. My mom wants to keep me really safe and my dad's not overly protective, but he's a dad no matter what.

When preparing for a concert, I do lots of training. I work with a choreographer to create great moves and then I have to keep my voice strong with lessons.

There's nothing more fun than being out on stage and getting the vibe from the crowd. There's nothing like being on a set where you are there to make other people happy and to make them laugh. That's the best job in the world.

I love looking out at 27 semis and being like, every single one of those semi trucks is there to put together my stage.

I never faked anything. I never played the Disney game of smiling and being a princess and then suddenly having a hard time, saying, 'That isn't who I really am.'

I have four shelves covered with journals that I've written. Dad and I are writing songs together. I've probably written 100 songs.
