The best Quotes by Mariah Carey

I don't think anyone knows as much about what's right for me as I do.

I don't mind being compared to Whitney, there are people miles worse to be compared to.

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 don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need

I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you

Being different isn't a bad thing. It means you're brave enough to be yourself.

Don't let anyone, ever, make you feel like you don't deserve what you want.

Don't ever let someone tell you, you can't do something. Not even me. You got a dream, you got to protect it. People can't do something themselves, they want to tell you you can't do it. You want something, go get it. Period. All right?

What other people think of you is none of your business.

Now, if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain't you. You're better than that!

I am thankful to all those who said NO to me. It's because of them I did it myself.

Death is not the greatest loss in life. The greatest loss is what dies inside, while still alive. Never surrender!

It's better to be hated for the person you are, than to be loved for the person you're not.

You've got enemies? Good. That means you actually stood up for something.

You're braver than you believe, and stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.

Believe you can, then you will.

The things that make me different are the things that make me.

Be confident. Too many days are wasted comparing ourselves to others and wishing to be something we aren't. Everybody has their own strengths and weknesses, and it is only when you accept everything you are - and aren't - that you will truly succeed.

Don't change so people will like you. Be yourself and the right people will love the real you.

Once you have accepted your flaws, no one can use them against you.

The problem with the world is that the intelligent people are full of doubts, while the stupid ones are full of confidence.

Small is the number of them that see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts.

Silent night, holy night!
All is calm, all is bright
Round yon Virgin, Mother and Child
Holy Infant so tender and mild
Sleep in heavenly peace
Sleep in heavenly peace

O Christmas tree, o Christmas tree
Thy leaves are so unchanging
Not only green when summer's here
But also when it's cold and drear
O Christmas tree, o Christmas tree
Thy leaves are so unchanging

Last Christmas, I gave you my heart
But the very next day, you gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Snow is fallin′
All around me
Children playin'
Having fun
It′s the season
Love and understandin'
Merry Christmas everyone!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas
Everywhere you go
Take a look at the five and ten, it's glistening once again
With candy canes and silver lanes that glow

Rockin' around the Christmas tree
At the Christmas party hop
Mistletoe hung where you can see
Every couple tries to stop

Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer
Had a very shiny nose
And if you ever saw it
You would even say it glows
All of the other reindeer
Used to laugh and call him names
They never let poor Rudolph
Play in any reindeer games

Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one-horse open sleigh

Driving home for Christmas
With a thousand memories
I take a look at the driver next to me
He's just the same

On the 12th day of Christmas my true love sent to me
12 drummers drumming
11 pipers piping
10 lords a-leaping
Nine ladies dancing
Eight maids a-milking
Seven swans a-swimming
Six geese a-laying
Five golden rings
Four calling birds
Three french hens
Two turtle doves, and
A partridge in a pear tree

Joy to the world, the Lord has come
Let earth receive her King
Let every heart prepare Him room
And heaven and nature sing, and heaven and nature sing
And heaven, and heaven and nature sing

Deck the halls with boughs of holly
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
'Tis the season to be jolly
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la
Don we now our gay apparel
Fa-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la
Troll the ancient Yule-tide carol
Fa-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la

It's a wonderful feeling
Feel the love in the room from the floor to the ceiling
It's that time of year
Christmas time is here
And with the blessings from above
God sends you His love
And everything's okay
Merry Christmas, happy holidays

I like to read biographies of authors that I love, like Richard Yates. I also like to see what non-fiction authors are out there. My bible is Something Happened. It's one of the greatest books I've ever read. But if I don't read a Dostoevsky soon I'm going to kill myself.
