Quotes

[edit]
  • I've never once done that. There's been so many times where I've been like, 'Oh, I just wanna show all of these texts. What are you talking about?' We just haven't heard. I begged them, you know, to go hang out or things like that, But, it's more of just the narrative that like, I think it's all good and we're living our life and then I just wake up and there's all these tweets about how I've kidnapped the kids and I'm like, it's not a kidnapping, it's a divorce. We can still all be in each other’s lives and have group dinners.
  • I will, you know, say, 'Hey, let's do it here at my house,' or, 'Let's figure out a different time, But actually, when he is like that, he doesn’t really want to see the kids a lot, so if he’s having a hard time, he doesn’t. So, it’s always worked out.
  • That narrative really sucks for me and if I spoke out about it and rebutted it, I'm just not that girl online that's going to fight back and be like wait a minute, your assistant and you said you wanted a whole different birthday party and you said your party's at four, so we did ours at noon, now you're going online? It's just a totally different narrative than what the reality is, and that just really sucks.
  • I mean, I don’t have a concept of what certain simple things cost, You know, I’d like to know a little bit more about what a milk carton costs.
  • I was in a tough position. I didn't, And I was in a tough position because I don't think they were in a position to have shared that information. It wasn't like a healthy place. And so I kind of didn't know if I should take it seriously or not. I had to wait a time period to really assess and see what was happening.
  • When you're in your 20s and stuff, it's like all out psycho war, like, take them down, Psychoness when you're in one of those — and that has happened  but it's like calling the person. I'll always call the person and go off.
  • he psycho side of me would come out just to make the call, and then I'd be like, ‘Okay, that felt good.
  • I was at dinner with all of my best friends, put it on speaker board wondering where my boyfriend was. He was flying in town to meet another girl on my birthday and lied to me that he was in a different city.
  • hey always knew that he had a big life traveling before and was always on tour and all of that and that he lives in different countries all the time and loves to live all over the place. So we manage it really well. They love their lives and their routine and schedule. My job as their mom is just to make sure they stick to their routine and that they’re healthy and happy.
  • Once my mental health starts to get affected and then I can’t parent the way that I need to and I can’t be present and focused, then there’s gotta be one of us that can, And I had to save myself in order to be a better mom for everyone. And I think when everyone’s older, they’ll be able to understand it and see that all.
  • I know this sounds crazy, but I know that was meant to happen to me. I don’t want to start crying, but I feel like that was so meant to happen to me, I’m such a different person. I, um…I don’t want to start crying anymore. It was meant to happen to me. I really feel like things happen in your life to teach you things. It was probably no secret, and you see it on the show—I was being flashy and I was definitely materialistic before.
  • It’s not to say that I’ll never wear jewelry again or anything like that, [but] I truly don’t know if I’d ever feel comfortable. I don’t know if I’d ever wear real jewelry again, Just…my whole life as changed as far as how I travel and security. I never thought that I needed security staying outside my door, even though I had a lot of jewelry. If you think about it, yeah, I should have had a security guard outside my door 24/7 when I’m traveling and I didn’t. Now, I have several, just for me to be able to sleep at night.
  • Sometimes you’re just not ready. A person could have it all, and you’re not ready for it all. But this is where I probably always should have been…[marriage] is something I know that we both want in our future, but I don’t have this sense of urgency about it. I have this best friend who understands me and helps me through all my tough experiences, and vice versa, you know? It just feels like this is it for me.
  • I saw fast marriages like Khloe and Lamar’s and that was what seemed to work. [Now] I say give it a good six months before you commit. Feelings change, even if it seems so lustful.
  • I was in such a deep depression I thought I was going to back away from it all,You know when you just have that feeling that he's the one? When we moved in I had the feeling he was not the one.
  • If anything, the tough decision to end that relationship was such a risk of losing ratings, losing my fan base, but I had to take that risk for myself.
  • I've obviously made plenty of mistakes in my lifetime, but I'm not the type to sit and beat myself up over it, If a real lesson was learned, I'm so okay with having experienced that.
  • That's so ridiculous. We have to hire a manager, why not hire our mother? No one will fight harder for you than your own mother.
  • I'm a completely different person. I don't know if it's growing up or being with Kanye, who's more private, but I try and live my off time as privately as possible. I used to enjoy the spotlight. If I had a day off from filming, I didn't know what to do. Now I enjoy my family time so much, there is this sense of, If it all went away, and I was just a mom, I would love my life.
  • When I found out I was pregnant [with North], I was going through an awful divorce, Kanye and I had just been dating for seven months—granted, we knew each other for a decade—and I was like, "I can't do this. It's not the right time." But then I figured, If I'm in my thirties and I'm not ready, I'll never be ready. So it's been the biggest lesson, and the biggest joy of my life.
  • My best friend told me, "You'll never remember what your life was like before her, but it'll be OK."... North has taught me patience. There's nothing I wouldn't do for her. And nothing I wouldn't do for my husband. She's empowered us to want to be the best parents and the best spouses.... Today North put on these Manolo heels of mine and was walking perfectly around my closet. I sent Kanye a video of her; he was like, "Tell her to stop! She cannot grow up, she cannot wear your heels."
  • I mean, obviously as you grow up, no one's ever 100 percent proud of every decision that they've made, and that's OK. I think as long as you learn from your mistakes, and don't make them over and over again, you're on the right path.
  • I'm not trying to influence anyone else; I'm not saying, "Do what I do." I think it's a little pretentious to say, "I'm a role model"; I would never say that, and I don't think of myself that way. Are there things I'd take back? I don't know if I'd take back the lessons that I've learned. Yeah, there are things that I'd be embarrassed about or wish didn't happen, but if I didn't have all those bad, crazy things, would I be who I am today? I don't know.
  • We were just shooting a cover, me in the dress with the champagne glass. But [photographer] Jean-Paul Goude gave me a book of his images when I was in makeup, and it was, like, Naomi Campbell naked and hanging from a rope—one of the coolest shots I've ever seen. So I said to him, "Hey, there's no rush. My publicist isn't here. We can kick the magazine out. If you want to work more, I'm here all night." When everyone came back, I was like, "You guys are going to die when you see what we did." I had dinner with my mom and Kanye afterward; they were like, "How was your shoot?" I was like, "Oh, good." I didn't say anything. When the magazine came out, my mom called screaming, "You didn't f--king warn me!" She went so crazy. I was like, "Relax, it's my shoot, my body, my life."
  • My style was really fun and flirty and cute; very colorful, very trendy. When I started dating Kanye, he was like, "Babe, you have so many crazy shoes and platforms with spikes and jewels, so much going on. Can I have my stylist come and we'll clean out your closet?" I've become in love with this still sexy but just cleaner look.
  • I didn't know that I was going to be so open with [my fertility challenges]. But meeting people at my fertility doctor's office who are going through the same things I'm going through, I thought, Why not share my story? It's been really emotional. One doctor told me I would need my uterus removed after I had another baby—I could only have one more. One was like, "You should get a surrogate." The other one was like, "Oh, no, you'll be fine." Then I called my doctor, and he's like, "You know what? I believe—we'll get through it."There are definitely times when I walked out [of the doctor's office] hysterically crying,and other times when I was like, "OK, everything's looking good—it's going to be this month!" The waiting and waiting has been a roller coaster.
