Brandy Norwood

I definitely felt like I needed a break, because when you do so much, you’re not able to appreciate the things that you accomplish.

I’ve been gone for a long time. I really want to give the fans something that they deserve to have. So, I’m working really hard on this. I really want to make it the best work I’ve done so far.

I have so much to talk about. I have so much to share. There are so many different emotions going on inside of me right now.

I’m a little bit afraid to give my heart away right now. It’s very scary. I’m open to it, but I just want to make sure that I’m taking my time.

I just feel my sexuality is private. I’m very shy about being sexy. That part of me has been so closed to the public eye. I’ve sold millions of records with my clothes on.

I wash my face every night with Ivory soap, and I don’t wear much makeup.

A happy person is not a person in a certain set of circumstances, but rather a person with a certain set of attitudes.

But you know, happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.

Anybody who thinks money will make you happy, hasn’t got money.

I’ve found happiness in my work, but not in my private life. I had to take from my private life to make my public life successful. I had to make a lot of sacrifices. I was happy in Cardiff. I had a great time. Every Thursday there was a factory club; darts, dancing. I was happy until success entered my life, and then it was all downhill. Success spoilt me. It took away my happiness. My success became a barrier with my family. They couldn’t relate to me, and I couldn’t relate to them.

Happiness, wealth, and success are the byproducts of goal setting; they cannot be the goals themselves.

The fact that a believer is happier than a skeptic is no more to the point than the fact that a drunken man is happier than a sober one.

Relinquishing the delusional hope that we can or must be flawless allows us to seek happiness in the place it can be found: Our real, messy, imperfect experience

If you are not happy every morning when you get up, leave for work, or start to work at home, and are not enthusiastic about doing that, you will not be successful.

Happiness and unhappiness are in the heart and spirit of each one of us: If you feel unhappy, then place yourself above that and act so that your happiness does not get to be dependent on anything.

Action may not bring happiness, but there is no happiness without action.

The greatest happiness of life is the conviction that we are loved – loved for ourselves, or rather, loved in spite of ourselves.

A lifetime of happiness? No man alive could bear it; it would be hell on earth.

I have to plan my happiness. That’s the thing, we think happiness just happens and it can, but you’ve got to work in some happiness too.

Laughter is the shortest distance between two people.

Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions.
