Life is all about having a good time.

I don't want to be perfect, but I do want to be a role model. My mom always tells me that imperfections equal beauty. All of us are imperfect.

I always say the minute I stop making mistakes is the minute I stop learning and I've definitely learned a lot.

My dad, like, he's the most trusting human in the world.

Music is what I breathe, what I love to do. It keeps me alive.

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

I am so excited to let fans in on how important my relationship with my family is to me. I hope to motivate mothers and daughters to build lifetimes of memories together and inspire kids around the world to live their dreams.

People like controversy because that's what sells.

I'm kind of bipolar in my acting choices because I just want to do a little bit of everything.

With yourself, I think you have to decide the kind of person that you really want to be, and for me, it's just a sweet girl.

I just stick my tongue out because I hate smiling in pictures. It's so awkward. It looks so cheesy.

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.

I'm pretty outspoken.

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

If you believe in yourself anything is possible.

I never had, like, a nanny that took care of me. My mom always fed me breakfast, lunch, and dinner.

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

If I could get any animal it would be a dolphin. I want one so bad. Me and my mom went swimming with dolphins and I was like, 'How do we get one of those?' and she was like, 'You can't get a dolphin. What are you gonna do, like, put it in your pool?'

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.

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!

My mom is always telling me it takes a long time to get to the top, but a short time to get to the bottom.

It's so much easier to know who you are when there aren't a thousand people telling you who they think you are.

I come from this really small town near Nashville, Tennessee, where everything was la-di-da and normal.

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

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.

Some of the worst things that have happened in my career, like things getting leaked, have actually been what's best for me, because people knew when I was on that show that I was really growing up.

All I do is work, so I eat to live and to keep going.

I take a hiatus every now and again, but I'm not good at that.

I don't keep secrets because I'm no good at them!

No matter how long what I'm doing here lasts, I want to be a songwriter for the rest of my life. I love it and it's my escape.

As soon as I step on that stage, nothing matters. I don't think of it as work. It's just so much fun.

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'm actually graduating early. I got a lot of work done already. Being home schooled, I have had a lot of tutors help me.

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

I love animals, but I don't really like riding animals. Like, I don't love being on a horse - it's just not my thing.

I am fully committed to Hannah Montana. It's what gave me this amazing opportunity to reach out to so many people. I'm really excited about our new season. We are making great new episodes that I can't wait for our fans to see and I'm looking forward to the "Hannah Montana" movie that will be out in the spring.

I think that turning on the charm without being fake is really important.

Those minutes that I'm on stage are the best! Being there and looking at the crowd and seeing their faces, hearing them sing the positive words from the songs.

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

Anyone that hates on you is always below you, because they're just jealous of what you have.

I've not taken like acting lessons or anything but it doesn't mean I don't need to because I'm sure I do.

Every career thing I do can't be perfect and sometimes my decisions are wrong.

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

God wants my life to be about being successful and being happy and blessing other people and being blessed.

People are impressed with me - because I can sleep for just 45 minutes - I'm used to it.

I don't have a normal life.

I get more anxious than nervous before a concert.

I think Hannah gets nervous just like any other person would. She's like a dork, personally. She's just really, really fun.

I don't love kids.
