Ariana Grande

"Pain is just a consequence of love."

"I'm very proud [to be part Italian] … Although I don't eat a lot of Italian things, because I'm vegan. … I love animals more than I love most people, not kidding. But I am a firm believer in eating a full plant-based, whole food diet that can expand your life length and make you an all-round happier person. It is tricky dining out, but I just stick to what I know – veggies, fruit and salad – then when I get home I'll have something else."

"Music is something everyone on Earth can share. Music is meant to heal us, to bring us together, to make us happy."

"“I’m tired of needing to be linked to a guy, I’m not Big Sean‘s ex, I’m not Niall‘s new possible girl. I’m Ariana Grande.”"

"“Don’t ever doubt yourselves or waste a second of your life. It’s too short, and you’re too special.”"

"I don't need a dozen roses You ain't gonna wine and dine me no. I don't need a pretty poet."

"It was my creative vision for it. I said, "I need to put a spin on this and wear it with a Jason mask or a Scream mask" or something. But I was a huge musical fan in general. This is kind of controversial to say, but I loved Avenue Q, even though it won the Tony for Best Musical over Wicked. But Wicked, of course, is my number one."

"I have never in my life felt the way I did when I found out that I got the role of Glinda in the film. I thought, Everything’s going to be okay forever now."

"Grande is my mom's last name; Butera is my father's last name. This feels like the most important, full-circle thing I've ever done, so I wanted to have them both be a part of this."

"The Waterboy, with Adam Sandler, makes me cry. When they're mean to Bobby Boucher, I cry. I don't like it. I love Bobby Boucher. He says, “Would you please still be my friend?” and I lose it. But I cry at everything."

"My sun is in dog, and my rising is in cat. Just because cats are so boundaried, and I have a little bit of boundaries too now, but I have the openness and emotional availability of a dog. So I have the emotional landscape of a dog, but with the boundaries of a cat."

"You know what, they did the Brighter Days memory erasure treatment to me, so I’m having trouble remembering the details. They’re foggy."

"You have to learn the language of my fans because ‘soon’ means 10 days or less,I’m not allowed to use that word at this moment. I’m not gonna use that word today. I’ll say that. Just keep your eyes peeled. Just keep them peeled. That’s all I’m saying."
