“Taylor Swift on why girls look up to her:
"It’s the message. I try to have a normal life and look at things in a normal way, under very abnormal circumstances. That’s always going to be my main goal, that’s always what I’m going to strive for, to be a normal human being. It’s interesting because you’re put in really abnormal situations. You have an abnormal-size microscope covering your life and everything you do. You look at the idea of being 22, that’s when you’re supposed to be out there living and being selfish and making mistakes and messing up. If I mess up once, it’s a headline everywhere.”
Taylor Swift

Like when my Love cut all her hair.”
Roman Payne

"Yes, Confucius, I know. Girls are people. Wisom of the ages. Nix is a girl and therefore a person. I know that."
