More quotes by Alicia Keys
The last thing I want is to walk into my house after a long day and see all the Grammys and awards. It would make me feel weird.
Alicia Keys
My mixed-race background made me a broad person, able to relate to different cultures. But any woman of colour, even a mixed colour, is seen as black in America. So that's how I regard myself.
Alicia Keys
Writing in my journal keeps me focused on my spirit and what I need or feel.
Alicia Keys

Alicia Keys
Love me like you'll never see me again.
Alicia Keys
My mother was raised very, very strict Catholic in the Midwest. There was so much fear and intimidation [in the faith]. So, growing up, I was always looking for my connection. I've found myself praying before meals, before bed there's always been this gratitude for things that are bigger than me.
Alicia Keys
Rarely, I think, do you find a relationship where you can experience things equally.
Alicia Keys
The more you know the stronger you become, the closer you feel to yourself and the farther you can go.
Alicia Keys
I've seen so many lives turn around from the impossible. I have come to embrace the idea that even the simplest act of understanding, love and attention can produce the biggest results.
Alicia Keys
The smaller you strip things down, the more you depend on the songs and yourself, as opposed to arrangements.
Alicia Keys
I'm definitely a nerd. I'm a cool-ass nerd, but I am definitely a nerd.
Alicia Keys
We're all going to change. Otherwise, it's boring.
Alicia Keys
I was just talking to Bono the other day, and he was like, Are you doing shows? I've just been off the road for a month-and-a-half, and he was like, You lucky girl.
