I've stepped more into my womanhood, I'm a mother now, I'm having a beautiful relationship as a wife and as a friend.

We are all one. We're not as separate as we oftentimes think.

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
Image
I've learned that while I'd be a fool not to stay open to the advice and experiences of the smart, amazing people in my life, I also need to listen to what I have to say.
Alicia Keys

I think that marriage is beautiful. And if it's a partnership with someone you love, then it really is beautiful. Yeah, I think that marriage does work.
Alicia Keys
Image
If you treat me fairly, I'll give you all my goods.
Alicia Keys
Image
You could have all the riches in the world, but it doesn't mean much without family.
Alicia Keys
Image
I think there was something about being in a tough environment that gave me a certain drive.
Alicia Keys
Image
Failure isn't an option. I've erased the word fear from my vocabulary and I think when you erase fear you can't fail.
Alicia Keys
Image
I've always valued the input of the people I love. So in the past, whenever I'd make a decision - what to wear to an event, whether to pursue a job opportunity - I'd consult those closest to me, like my mother, husband, or manager.

Image
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
Image
The most important thing to remember is that you can wear all the greatest clothes and all the greatest shoes, but you’ve got to have a good spirit on the inside. That’s what’s really going to make you look like you’re ready to rock the world.
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.
