Most times, your blessings are also your curses. And for me, I have this ability to express myself so clearly with pen and paper, but when it comes to expressing myself verbally, I put up a big wall.

More quotes by Alicia Keys
I love the written word so much, I know it's gonna flow naturally.
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
Moments are so fleeting I want to hold on to the good ones. When I am truly present, I feel alive, and I want everyone around me to share that feeling so we can make the most of that moment together.
Alicia Keys
When I did get signed and I was going around letting people know what I was about, that's exactly how I did it: me on the piano, playing a couple of songs I'd written and talking to the people in between. That's how I got my performance chops up.
Alicia Keys
We're all going to change. Otherwise, it's boring. Who wants to stay the damn same all their life?
Alicia Keys
I'm committed to evolving and growing and sitting at the head of my own table with no fears or limitations. But I've also learned to be more open now and more spontaneous in life.
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
When I was younger, studying classical music, I really had to put in the time. Three hours a day is not even nice - you have to put in six.
Alicia Keys
He broke my heart, and now it's raining, just to rub it in.
Alicia Keys
I really like to live my life in a low-key fashion.
Alicia Keys
Once people see this 'Unplugged,' I just want them to feel the spontaneity, to feel passionate... I want you to see another side of me, that's free, and feel where my head is, where whatever happens, happens. I want you to feel inspired.
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
From the beginning, I've had to juggle and weigh the silly things people say - and I've learnt that they're meaningless, and they're mostly inaccurate. So I don't worry about it, because there's nothin' for me to deal with.
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
I believe AIDS is the most important issue we face, because how we treat the poor is a reflection of who we are as a people.
Alicia Keys
I can do what I want to do, lucky me. But when these people are coming at me and asking these things, they don't really care about me. And I have felt like there were all these people who just wanted to use me.
Alicia Keys
Many things inspire me. First and foremost, my family, my husband, and our son. I find that the love we share fills me up and makes me see and appreciate life in a different way.
Alicia Keys
How terrible would it have been if I had come out with some watered-down version of who I am? People fell in love with the real me, and I still feel blessed that that was how the journey began.
Alicia Keys
I grew up in the theater, my mother is an actress, I was always around the world of acting and theater.
Alicia Keys
I find that the love we share fills me up and makes me see and appreciate life in a different way.
