We're trying to set up a movie for me in the near future. It's going to be similar to the story of how I got discovered. Kinda like my own version of '8 Mile.'

I'm looking forward to influencing others in a positive way. My message is you can do anything if you just put your mind to it.

I've got my eye on a few things to spend my money on. I've got my own bank card but I am really good with money. I don't spend too much at all.

Cheryl Cole and Katy Perry are two of the hottest girls in the world - and so normal and funny with it. If I was a few years older they are the kind of girls I'd like to date. I want a younger version of Cheryl and Katy - a mixture of the two would be hot.

I grew up below the poverty line; I didn't have as much as other people did. I think it made me stronger as a person, it built my character. Now I have a 4.0 grade point average and I want to go to college, and just become a better person.

I started singing about three years ago, I entered a local singing competition called Stratford Idol. The other people in the competition had been taking singing lessons and had vocal coaches. I wasn't taking it too seriously at the time, I would just sing around the house. I was only 12 and I got second place.

The Beliebers have done some pretty crazy stuff. Last week, the night before I was due to do a show in Germany, four girls went into a dumpster so they could sneak into the building. They climbed in and hid. When the guys working on the truck started getting the garbage they found them straight away. It was crazy.

I've had a few gigs where things have got out of hand and there has been a huge crush with my fans. They are important and I don't want them being hurt. They are a mad crowd.

I think older people can appreciate my music because I really show my heart when I sing, and it's not corny. I think I can grow as an artist, and my fans will grow with me.

Young people in the business have grown up and made the wrong decisions, or bad decisions, and haven't been good role models. To be someone that people look up to is important to me.

Friends are the best to turn to when you're having a rough day.

I got a bright future ahead of me.

I grew up in a really small town with not a lot of money, and I liked singing, but it was just something that was a hobby.

I know who I am and what I'm doing in my life and what I've accomplished and continue to accomplish as a performer, as a writer, as an artist, as a person, as a human being.

I make mistakes growing up. I'm not perfect; I'm not a robot.

I want my world to be fun.

I want to be a young dad. By 25 or 26 I want to see myself, like, married or start looking for a family.

I want to grow as an artist, and I'm taking a step out. I want my music to mature.

I'm crazy, I'm nuts. Just the way my brain works. I'm not normal. I think differently.

I'm happy with the man I'm becoming.

I'm really an animal guy. I express myself in different ways as an animal.

It's not me trying to act or pose in a certain way. It's a lifestyle - like a suaveness or a swag, per se.

My mind is always racing.

No one can stop me.

Not trying to be arrogant, but if I walked down the street and a girl saw me, she might take a look back because maybe I'm good-looking, right?

Now that I'm on top, everyone wants to bring me down. Everyone's trying to tug at me and take my spot.

Of course, I think that people are just waiting for that time when I make a mistake and they're gonna jump on it.... There's gonna be haters.

Sometimes it's overwhelming but I love my fans and it's always great to see them.

When people see a negative thing about me on a magazine, they're gonna buy it. Every time some site writes something bad, all my followers go on there, and it brings them more traffic.

Let me tell you a story about a girl and a boy. He fell in love with his best friend, when she's around he feels nothing but joy.

Don't stress, don't cry, we don't need no wings to fly

Young people in the business have grown up and made the wrong decisions or bad decisions and havent been good role models. To be someone that people look up to is important to me.

A girl has to have a beautiful smile beautiful eyes and she should have a good sense of humor. She should be honest loving and trustworthy.

I close my eyes and I can see a better day. I close my eyes and pray.

If I was your boyfriend Id never let you go keep you in my arms girl youd never be alone and I could be a gentlemen anything you want if I was your boyfriend.

To all the haters out there I wish you the best. You cant bring me down. I wake up everyday grateful for the opportunity and grateful to the fans.

I'm not hiding from anyone. I am who I am, and I'm not perfect.

Never Say Never if you know you can do what you love don't give up.

The future belongs to those who see possibilities before they become obvious.

It looks like the future's really bright.

I am tomorrow, or some future day, what I establish today. I am today what I established yesterday or some previous day.

The best prophet of the future is the past.

Some of the best lessons we ever learn are learned from past mistakes. The error of the past is the wisdom and success of the future.

Race horses are like golfers, you're never sure how they're going to come out of the stalls. It's just - hopefully the horses come out of the race all right, just fit and ready to go again in the near future, but 3rd was good. It's paid for its hay.

Philosophy finds it an easy matter to vanquish past and future evils, but the present are commonly too hard for it.

In 1975 I decided that there was no future in flying (airline jobs were impossible to get, and who wants a job where you are judged only by seniority?) and headed off to grad school.

America is false to the past, false to the present, and solemnly binds herself to be false to the future.

Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment.
