“I’m not a party girl. I love performing on stage, that’s where I can really come alive and get a bit wild, but in private I want to live more quietly. I want to live a good life, make good choices, and be good to the people I love and stay close to my friends. Sometimes people tell me that I am young and I should be going out more, having fun, making mistakes and being more selfish. The trouble is, if I mess up there will be six months of headlines afterwards. I spent every day of the summer working in the studio and then spent evenings with my friends, so that was my way of getting back to a normal life. That keeps things in focus for me.”

-Taylor Swift
