Britney Quotes

"I was sitting in the Spearses' living room and I heard what I thought was the radio playing real loud. Turns out it wasn't the radio at all, it was Britney singing in the bathroom."

- Ginger Simmons, Spears family friend

"Once Britney makes up her mind to do something, look out! You'd better believe she's gonna do it. Just stand back and give my sister some room."

- Bryan Spears

"She is so cool, and she's a really good singer and sister. When I grow up, I'm gonna be just like her."

- Jamie Lynn Spears

"She has this sweet innocence. I could persuade her it's going to rain little dogs tomorrow and she'd say, 'Yes, ma'am.' She has the most trusting heart."

- Margaret Smith, Spears family friend

"Sometimes Britney will say something and it reminds me exactly of Lynne when she was that age. Even the way she says it! They're just two of a kind."

- Sandra Covington, aunt

"Lynne thinks ice cream can fix anything. You're depressed, you're mad, you're stressed out - well, you just go buy yourself a nice big ol' pint and you'll feel better in no time! Well, you know what? It worked every time for Britney, and I swear it still does."

- Jill Prescott, Spears family friend

"Britney has inspired a whole town - not just little girls but grown-ups, too - to follow their dreams. They say 'If she can do it, so can I'. She's made such a contribution, there's talk of putting up a sign in Kentwood: Home of Britney Spears."

- Buddy Powell, owner of the Golden Coral restaurant in Kentwood
