"I hadn't quite gotten the chance to get back to full health before shows resumed, and now I am sick again and unfortunately it's all taken a toll on my voice."

"No way I was missing the f------ show."

"I am no longer in pain, which is great."

"I actually have an ear infection, which is pretty grim. I've never had an ear infection before," she said. "It is the most painful thing that has ever, ever happened to me in my life — it was worse than childbirth."

"I haven't played in Europe since 2016! I couldn't think of a more wonderful way to spend my summer and end this beautiful phase of my life and career with shows closer to home during such an exciting summer."

"That's the only role I ever want," she said. "Because I think I'd nail it. I think I'd do really, really, really good at it."

"The guy whose movie it would be, he's not mentally ready to write the script for it."

"If I get antsy, that's when I know I have to go to the studio, and I am the opposite of antsy right now."

"I have to wait for a feeling."

"I don't like being famous. I love that I get to make music all the time."

"I don't have any plans for new music, at all, I want a big break after this and I think I want to do other creative things, just for a little while."

"I don't really need to stand out, there's room for everyone. Although I haven't built a niche yet, I'm just writing love songs."

"I love seeing Lady Gaga's boobs and bum. I love seeing Katy Perry's boobs and bum. Love it. But that's not what my music is about. I don’t make music for eyes, I make music for ears."

"I'm mortified to have to pay 50%! [While] I use the NHS, I can't use public transport any more. Trains are always late, most state schools are shit, and I've gotta give you, like, four million quid – are you having a laugh? When I got my tax bill in from [the album] 19, I was ready to go and buy a gun and randomly open fire."

"But I set fire to the rain, Watched it pour as I touched your face, Well it burnt while I cried, Cause I heard it screaming out your name, your name! I set fire to the rain And I threw us into the flames Well it felt like something died Cause I knew that that was the last time, the last time!"

"I can't keep up with your turning tables Under your thumb, I can't breathe.I won't let you close enough to hurt me, no. I won't ask you, you to just desert me. I can't give you, what you think you gave me. It's time to say goodbye to turning tables."

"Bless your soul, you've got you're head in the clouds, You made a fool out of you, And, boy, she's bringing you down, She made your heart melt, But you're cold to the core, Now rumour has it she ain't got your love anymore."

"The scars of your love remind me of us They keep me thinking that we almost had it all. The scars of your love they leave me breathless. I can't help feeling We could have had it all. Rolling in the deep. You had my heart inside of your hand And you played it To the beat."

"There's a fire starting in my heart Reaching a fever pitch, It’s bringing me out the dark Finally I can see you crystal clear Go head and sell me out And I'll lay your ship bare.See how I leave with every piece of you Don't underestimate the things that I will do."

"I like it in the city when the air is so thick and opaque I love to see everybody in short skirts, shorts and shades I like it in the city when two worlds collide You get the people and the government Everybody taking different sides."

"Round my hometown, Memories are fresh. Round my hometown, Ooh the people I've met Are the wonders of my world."

"You said I'm stubborn and I never give in. I think you're stubborn 'cept you're always softening. You say I'm selfish, I agree with you on that. I think you're giving out way too much in fact. I say we've only known each other one year; You say I've known you longer my dear. You like to be so close, I like to be alone. I like to sit on chairs and you prefer the floor. Walking with each other, think we'll never match at all, but we do. But we do, but we do, but we do."

"You say it's all in my head And the things I think just don't make sense So where you been then? Don't go all coy Don't turn it round on me like it's my fault See I can see that look in your eyes The one that shoots me each and every time. You grace me with your cold shoulder Whenever you look at me I wish I was her. You shower me with words made of knives Whenever you look at me I wish I was her."

"Should I give up, Or should I just keep chasing pavements? Even if it leads nowhere, Or would it be a waste? Even if I knew my place should I leave it there? Should I give up, Or should I just keep chasing pavements? Even if it leads nowhere."

"I have insecurities of course, but I don't hang out with anyone who points them out to me."

"I'm just going to sing now because I want to, and I'll make records when I want to and not because someone is forcing me to do it. Not that anyone ever has. I'd fire them if they tried."

"I'm a feminist. I believe that everyone should be treated the same, including race and sexuality."

"I can't be a product; no one can do that to me. I have all the say; I have power over everything I do."

"I never wanted to look like models on the cover of magazines. I represent the majority of women and I'm very proud of that."

"The bigger that your career gets, the smaller your life gets."

"I've never had a problem with the way I look. I'd rather have lunch with my friends than go to a gym."

"The exciting thing about seeing a new show is that you are taken on a journey of surprises, if you know what’s coming it takes away the fun."

"I can't tell you the joy I felt in flying in that show … I loved it so. The freedom of spirit that was Peter Pan was suddenly there for me. I discovered I was happier in the air than on the ground."

"Peter Pan is perhaps the most important thing, to me, that I have ever done in theater."

"Even as a baby I quickly learned to crawl out of my crib. … They'd put up barriers but I learned how to go over them."

"Mary was forty years old when she first played Peter Pan, yet she rehearsed fourteen hours a day and seemed fresh and high spirited while everyone else in the company drooped with fatigue. She was determined to fly all over the stage in the part."

"The irrepressible boy who refused to grow up had been the star's favorite character since childhood, and she longed to play the role on stage."

"Things can get very lovey and feasty with a bunch of stimulated hams."

"Anything was better than playing cards, and I was doing something I wanted to do — creating."

"I was seventeen years old, a married woman without real responsibilities, miserable about my mixed-up emotions, afraid there was something awfully wrong with me because I didn’t enjoy being a wife. Worst of all, I didn't have enough to do."

"It was all role playing. I felt Larry was my little brother, Ben my big brother. Role playing was something I had known since I was born, but it wasn't a good basis for a marriage."

"Never, never, never can I say I had a frustrating childhood. It was all joy. Mother used to say she never had seen such a happy child — that I awakened each morning with a smile. I don’t remember that, but I do remember that I never wanted to go to bed, to go to sleep, for fear I’d miss something."

"Sometimes I think that I cheated my own family and my closest friends by giving to audiences so much of the love I might have kept for them. But that’s the way I was made; I truly don't think I could help it"

"Mother was the disciplinarian, but it was Daddy who could turn me into an angel with just one look."

"You are my Peter Pan."

"Stop the habit of wishful thinking and start the habit of thoughtful wishes."

"Neverland is the way I would like real life to be … timeless, free, mischievous, filled with gaiety, tenderness, and magic."

"You never find yourself until you face the truth."

"People see God every day. They just don't recognize Him."
