Miranda Lambert Thinking Quotations

I think I find new idols every day - someone that says something really inspiring, is successful, has character.

Really skinny actresses make me hungry - I see them and think, Honey, you need to eat!

I really think that being yourself, being original, being outside the box is starting to be appealing to people.

Country music is different because we [musicians] are all actually happy for each other. We're all friends. It's a little family. So if you don't win [an award], usually one of your friends does. So it's kind of a cool thing. I think it's the only genre of music to have that camaraderie.

A lot of people tell me, once they get to know me, that they're surprised that I'm nothing like they think I'll be.

I don’t care about being stick-thin. I don’t want stuff to jiggle. Really skinny actresses make me hungry—I see them and think, Honey, you need to eat! I’m lucky I don’t have to live like that. I feel my best when I’m a toned, not flabby, size 8. Women come up to me and say, ‘You’re beautiful and confident, and that makes me feel I can be, too.’

I think being a Texan - we sort of have that extra fire in us as a breed. I just felt like from day one I had something to say and I wanted to make sure people heard me, and it's worked.
