A lot of times I watch TV and I watch film and there's so many things I'd love to talk about that I feel don't get the opportunity to be shown. Sometimes things become very stereotypical and one-sided, and I feel like it's such a colorful world.
Alicia Keys
I'm having an unbelievable time on the road. I am taking the time to explore each new city in a way I never have before.
Alicia Keys
You're at your most purest, most innocent, pure state when you're doing something you've never done before. You're scared a little, you're a little vulnerable, you're kind of trying, and then you're also better, because you're trying harder than you maybe would try.

I don't know if we tell women great news about themselves enough. You'd be surprised how often a young woman doesn't hear positive things about herself - not in her home, not at school. It's hard to create a beautiful image for yourself when you've never seen it or heard it.

There are certain things we come into this world having to defeat. And for me, and I would not be surprised if a lot of women feel this same way, it's this thing of not being 100 percent comfortable with myself.
Alicia Keys
I wanted my first film to be something where I was surrounded by an amazing cast. I wanted to do something that was completely unexpected, totally out of the box, something that would blow people's minds, that the last thing on the planet earth they would ever think I would do would be it.
Alicia Keys
When I'm on stage, my interaction with the audience is something that really makes me come alive. It's a feeling like no other. The energy of the crowd fuels something new inside. It reminds me to live in the moment.
Alicia Keys
Love will come find you, just to remind you of who you are.
Alicia Keys
There was no other path for me. I knew this was my path. I had to follow it.
Alicia Keys
I believe in the limitlessness of humans. We're capable of incredible things. At times, that realization is frightening.
Alicia Keys
The smaller you strip things down, the more you depend on the songs and yourself, as opposed to arrangements.
Alicia Keys
My parents weren't married. It wasn't like my dad up and left. I maintained a steady relationship with my grandparents. My dad's mother is my nana, and I'm closer to her than almost anybody in this world.
Alicia Keys
Create the world you want, and fill it with the opportunities that matter to you.
Alicia Keys
As a lyricist, you love to hear other great lyrics or other great concepts.
Alicia Keys
Sometimes you need to start again, in order to fly
Alicia Keys
Musicians used to be way more instrumental just in providing a soundtrack to what's going on in the world. And it's also important to state what we think. There's like this fear for their career, if they have anything intelligent to say about politics. And that's really messed up.
