Every so often, the world is blessed with an entertainer who can truly do it all. Sing, dance, act, model … hell, you name it, and they’ve got you covered. Of course, as of 2020, no woman embodies that sentiment more so than the one and only Lady Gaga. What makes Gaga especially amazing, however, is her ability to inspire anyone who has ever felt less than — be it pretty, talented or otherwise. With that said, we’re breaking down her most inspiring quotes over the years. Scroll through the gallery below to see them all!

On Feminism:

“I am a feminist. I reject wholeheartedly the way we are taught to perceive women. The beauty of women, how a woman should act or behave. Women are strong and fragile. Women are beautiful and ugly. We are soft-spoken and loud, all at once. There is something mind-controlling about the way we’re taught to view women. My work, both visually and musically, is a rejection of all those things. And most importantly a quest,” Lady Gaga said during a SHOWstudio interview in May 2010.

On Toxic Ex-Boyfriends:

Gaga told Cosmopolitan magazine in April 2010: “I had a boyfriend who told me I’d never succeed, never be nominated for a Grammy, never have a hit song and that he hoped I’d fail,[…] I said to him, ‘Someday, when we’re not together, you won’t be able to order a cup of coffee at the f—ing deli without hearing or seeing me.”

On Following Your Dreams:

In the same interview with Cosmo, Gaga said: “Some women choose to follow men, and some women choose to follow their dreams. If you’re wondering which way to go, remember that your career will never wake up and tell you that it doesn’t love you anymore.”

On Being Yourself:

“I don’t care what people think about me, I care what they think about themselves,” Gaga declared during Fuse’s On The Record.

On Perspective:

Gaga once told her fans, “Sometimes in life you don’t always feel like a winner, but that doesn’t mean you’re not a winner.”

On Self-Love:

“At the end of the day you won’t be happy until you love yourself,” Gaga expressed during a speech.

On Perseverance:

“Every time they told me no, I just got stronger,” Gaga declared to fans.

On Embracing Who You Are:

“Don’t you ever let a soul in the world tell you that you can’t be exactly who you are.”

9 of 11

On Beauty:

“You define beauty yourself, society doesn’t define your beauty.”

On 100 People Being in the Room:

“There can be a hundred people in the room, and 99 don’t believe in you, but one does.” Sorry, Gaga, we had to do it! To be honest, no matter how much flack she got about repeating this quote, it really does ring true. Like Gaga, it’s important to surround yourself with people who support your dreams and talents.
