More quotes by Alicia Keys
I think being really connected to a higher power, of having a spirituality to me, has been really good for me and I pray all the time.
Alicia Keys
I want to continue to produce film, television, and theater, and to make the most amazing music that I've made in my life.
Alicia Keys
I definitely want to act, but I also want to score movies, and I have this idea to fuse classical music with other styles that would give it a different perception.
Alicia Keys
It's important for everyone - working moms especially - to find moments to ground themselves and connect with their own breath.
Alicia Keys
I thought I had to be perfect. I would often make choices I thought would make everyone else happy. I lived at a pace that was good for my career, whether it was good for me or not. I have learned how important it is to check in with myself and listen, really listen.
Alicia Keys
But when I first fell in love with the piano, I knew it was me. I was dying to play.
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.
Alicia Keys
I feel the presence of a higher power. I believe that what you give is what you get. It's universal law. I believe in the power of prayer and of words. I've learned that when you predict that negative things will happen, they do.
Alicia Keys
You could have all the riches in the world, but it doesn't mean much without family.
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.
Alicia Keys
Music is funny. I shouldn't even ever talk about music, because you can have all the ideas in your head, and it never goes exactly the way that you think it's gonna go.
Alicia Keys
Yes I was burned but I called it a lesson learned. Mistake overturned so I call it a lesson learned. My soul has returned so I call it a lesson learned...another lesson learned
Alicia Keys
I'd rather not have anything than be a liar.
Alicia Keys
No matter how far you are. No matter how long it takes him. Through Distance And Time I'll be waiting.
Alicia Keys
There's too much darkness in the world. Everywhere you turn, someone is tryin' to tear someone down in some way everywhere you go, there's a feeling of inadequacy, or a feeling that you're not good enough. I want to bring a certain light to the world.
Alicia Keys
I'm discovering my sexual side, and exploring relationships. You know, sensual stuff. And I'm discovering a lot of sides of myself, stuff I've buried. So the music is also therapeutic, to come to terms with things. And I feel now like my head is in the right space.
Alicia Keys
When I had nothing else, I had my mother and the piano. And you know what? They were all I needed.
Alicia Keys
The desire to play has always been in me. I remember my first experience at about four or five of really dying to sing and dying to play that came from no one telling me to do so.
Alicia Keys
Simplicity makes me happy.
Alicia Keys
I personally feel that acting is not totally different from singing and being a musician.
