Whitney Housten

I decided long ago never to walk in anyone's shadow; if I fail, or if I succeed at least I did as I believe.

When I decided to be a singer, my mother warned me I'd be alone a lot. Basically we all are. Loneliness comes with life.

My mother taught me that when you stand in the truth and someone tells a lie about you, don't fight it.

   No, I'm not a drug addict, and neither is my husband. If that were so, you'd get a lot less work out of me. It would show in the performances and in the work.

I like being a woman, even in a man's world. After all, men can't wear dresses, but we can wear the pants.

 

I'd rather be alone than unhappy.
