Cara: "Beauty comes in all forms. It's not just external; it's internal as well."
Cara: "As a young girl, I'm always going to have to work a bit harder to prove myself; that's just reality. But having to work harder makes me feel like girls are stronger, too."
Cara: "I was a troublemaking kid."
Cara: "I think fame is such a scary thing, and it's something I can never understand. It's terrifying, but it's the only way I get to do what I love every day, you know?"
Cara: "I am stubborn enough to know not to change myself."
Cara: "I always told myself that if I was going to be given a voice, I might as well say something worth listening to and not something that's just going to feed people stupidity."
Cara: "Realize that everyone that you think is perfect feels like they're not good enough, too."
Cara: "My family is from the south of Italy in this little place called Calabria. It's a big part of my family, the Italian culture. I grew up around it. My parents speak Italian, and I speak Italian."
Cara: "I just want to keep my normal life for as long as possible."
Cara: "It's good to have a reminder that we can love ourselves and be beautiful even though we don't really fit into certain standards of what beauty may be."
Cara: "I always find power in struggles. You end up a lot happier that way."
Cara: "I first picked up a guitar when I was ten years old; my parents surprised me with it for my tenth birthday. I started taking lessons when I was thirteen, but only for a few months, and then I just kept teaching myself."
Cara: "I'm not a fitness model; I'm just a singer. If people focus on that, that's what I care about."
Cara: "I've never hosted a party in my life, not even my own birthday party. I'd feel really uncomfortable saying, 'Hey everybody, let's celebrate me!' But I'm not antisocial. I don't hate people."
Cara: "I barely have time to think. But the best way to stay grounded is to take it one day at a time."
