I Often Think People Don't Know What To Think Of Me, And In Fact This Is Precisely The Objective Of Many Of My Creations. Even Back In The Days With Lady Starlight, My Original Partner, We Aimed To Bemuse. This Feeling Of Bemusement - It's Neither Good Nor Bad. It Just Is. Whether Critics Realize It Or Not, They've Been In A Very Long Argument Since My Public Birth.

If You're A Strong Female, You Don't Need Permission.

I Study Everything That I Do To Become Better All The Time At My Craft. The Beauty For Me About Being An Artist Is That The Dream Will Never Die Because I'm Not Obsessed With Material Things And Don't Care About The Money And Don't Care About The Attention Of The Public But Only The Love Of My Fans. For Me It's About Keeping The Dream Alive Of How Much More Devoted, How Much More Honest, How Much Better Of An Artist Can I Become? That's The Only Fear That I Ever Have, That The Dream Will Die.

Sometimes I Get This Gut Feeling About People - Maybe I Sense A Hidden Agenda Or That They Care For The Money More Than The Message. I Wish That I'd Listen To That Feeling Instead Of Waiting For The Truth To Rear Its Ugly Head. I'm A Smart Girl. I'm Loyal. But Sometimes I'm Too Loyal. I'm Not Loyal Enough To Myself.

I Have To Be Really Honest: People Who Say They Can't Escape The Paparazzi Are Full Of Sh*t. Let Me Just Be The Artist To Throw Everybody Under The Bus. I Don't Spend Lots Of Money On Houses Or Lots Of Cars, But I Do Spend Money On Security And They Never Find Me.

I Believe In A Glamorous Life, And I Live A Glamorous Life.

Celebrity Life And Media Culture Are Probably The Most Overbearing Pop-cultural Conditions That We As Young People Have To Deal With, Because It Forces Us To Judge Ourselves.

When I Travel, I Have Almost All Of My Possessions With Me. That's How Little I Own.

I Work All Day, Do Research, Sketch My Ideas, Prepare For Performances.

I Think Tolerance And Acceptance And Love Is Something That Feeds Every Community.

I Live Between Two Things-i Live Between Art And Pop All The Time.

I Hope To See Women Thriving And Happy, Loving What They're Doing, And Being In Control And Powerful Of What They Create. I Guess What I Would Say Is, As Much As We All Love The Fashion And The Makeup And The Glamour, This Isn't A Beauty Pageant. It's About The Heart And The Drive And The Work.

I Adored Freddie Mercury And Queen Had A Hit Called Radio Gaga. That's Why I Love The Name. Freddie Was Unique - One Of The Biggest Personalities In The Whole Of Pop Music.

When I Wake Up In The Morning, I Feel Just Like Any Other Insecure 24-year-old Girl.

If You Only Believe That You're An Artist When You Have A Big Advance In Your Pocket And A Single Coming Out, I Would Say That's Quite Soulless.

The End Of The Day

People That Are Obsessed With Hating You, Feel Flattered. Their Whole Lives Revolve Around You.

It's Been A Very Remarkable Year, And I Feel Very Blessed. I Lived An Isolated Lifestyle Before The Media. I Lived A Life Of Solitude And Loyalty And Commitment To My Work.

I'm Very Free-spirited.

I Can't Even Drive A Car. I Don't Have A Driver's License. I Have A Rented Apartment In New York. That's It. When I Travel, I Have Almost All Of My Possessions With Me. That's How Little I Own.

My Talent Matters More To Me Than The Money Does.

I Used To Get Bullied By The Popular Girls At School. Today, I Am The Popular Girl, And The Bullies Come To My Shows.

It Doesn't Matter Who You Are, Or Where You Come From, Or How Much Money You've Got In Your Pocket. You Have Your Own Destiny And Your Own Life Ahead Of You.

I Have Never Had Plastic Surgery, And There Are Many Pop Singers Who Have.

I Feel The Denial Of Gay Marriage Sends A Prejudice Message. Our Youth Deserve A Fair And Hopeful Future With Government That Values Us Equally.

I Don't Want To Be Remembered As Anything But Brave. The Only Good Intention To Make Money Is To Help Others. I Want To Be Oprah. I Want To Be Melinda Gates. If I Ever Sell Products Other Than My Talents, Then It Will Be To Give More To Others.

You Have To Be Careful About How Much You Reveal To People That Look Up To You So Much.

I Just Am Committed Wholeheartedly To Theatre With No Intermission.

I Don't Like Talking To Celebrities.

When You Make Music Or Write Or Create, It's Really Your Job To Have Mind-blowing, Irresponsible, Condomless Sex With Whatever Idea It Is You're Writing About At The Time.

Every Video I'm In, Every Magazine Cover, They Stretch You - They Make You Perfect. It's Not Real Life. I'm Gonna Say This About Girls: The Dieting Wars Have Got To Stop. Everyone Just Knock It Off. Because At The End Of The Day, It's Affecting Kids Your Age. And It's Making Girls Sick.

I Went To See 'phantom Of The Opera' With My Grandma And My Mom When I Was Very Little. The Stage, The Voice, The Music?... Composer Andrew Lloyd Webber Has Been A Massive Inspiration To Me For Some Time - The Storytelling, That Deliciously Somber Undertone In His Music.

If I Can Be A Leader, I Will.

I'm A Wandering Gypsy.

Prejudice Is A Disease. So Is Fashion. But I Will Not Wear Prejudice.

A Record Deal Doesn't Make You An Artist; You Make Yourself An Artist.

I'm Not Interested, Larry, In Being A Perfect, Plastic Pop Singer That Looks Great In Bikinis And Is On The Cover Of Every Magazine. I'm More Interested In Helping My Fans To Love Who They Are, And Helping Them To Reject Prejudice And Reject Those Things That They're Taught From Society To Not Like Themselves, To Feel Like Freaks, That They're Not Wanted.

I Got A Job When I Was 15 Because My Allowance Was About $20 A Week Which In New York Was Impossible. So I Used To Waitress Across The Street From Where I Grew Up.

The Whole World May Not Understand Me, But I Don’t Care.

I Have To Be On Such A Strict Diet Constantly.

In Fact, The Alejandro Video...is A Celebration Of My Love And Appreciation For The Gay Community, My Admiration Of Their Bravery, And Their Love For One Another, Their Courage In Their Relationships.

I Talk About Myself In The Third Person All The Time. I Don't Live My Life In The Way Someone Like You Does. I Live My Life Completely Serving Only My Work And My Fans.

I Don't Want To Face The Reality Of What People Want From A Female Pop Star. Everybody Always Laughs Because I Feel So Much More Comfortable With, Like, A Giant Paper Bag On My Whole Body And Paint On My Face. Sometimes I Try Really Hard To Take It All Off. But Inevitably What's Underneath Is Still Not A Straight Edge. And I Don't Think It Ever Will Be.

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.

I’d Rather Be Poor And Happy Than Rich And Alone.

There's Something About Lonely Nights And My Lipstick On Your Face

You Define Beauty For Yourself, Society Doesn’t Define Your Beauty. Your Spirit And Your Faith Defines Your Beauty.

All That Ever Holds Somebody Back, I Think, Is Fear. For A Minute I Had Fear. [then] I Went Into The [dressing] Room And Shot My Fear In The Face.

I Think That Promoting Insecurity In The Form Of Plastic Surgery Is Infinitely More Harmful Than An Artistic Expression Related To Body Modification.

In My Show I Announce, 'people Say Lady Gaga Is A Lie, And They Are Right. I Am A Lie. And Every Day I Kill To Make It True.'

Rejoice And Love Yourself Today 'cause Baby, You Were Born This Way.

No Matter How Much You Rehearse On That Stage, Once You Add 30,000 Screaming People With Flashing Cameras Into The Equation, It's Pretty Intense.

I Don't Care What People Think About Me, I Care What They Think About Themselves.

Sunblock! I Don't Like To Tan My Face Because It's Bad For Wrinkles.
