More quotes by Alicia Keys

Image
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.
Alicia Keys
Image
We are all one. We're not as separate as we oftentimes think.
Alicia Keys
Image
My music comes from many, many, many places. My emotions, my feelings, my thoughts, and conversations I have with people I know who influence me.
Alicia Keys
Image
Not having all the information can make me feel vulnerable.
Alicia Keys
Image
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.

If I didn't love it, I would not record it.
Alicia Keys
Image
If I can remain excited about the music that I'm giving you, then you're damn sure going to be excited about it.
Alicia Keys
Image
When I really need it, talking is the best way to deal with emotional pain.
Alicia Keys
Image
I'm a very positive person, but this whole concept of having to always be nice, always smiling, always happy, that's not real. It was like I was wearing a mask. I was becoming this perfectly chiselled sculpture, and that was bad. That took a long time to understand.
Alicia Keys
Image
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
Image
What breaks my heart is suffering of any kind. Too often, our world is divisive and cruel where it needs to be uniting and loving.
Alicia Keys
Image
I loved grand pianos and small pianos, too.
Alicia Keys
Image
Rarely, I think, do you find a relationship where you can experience things equally.
Alicia Keys
Image
I have my mother who is an Irish-Italian, and my father who is African, so I have the taste buds of an Italian and the spice of an African.
Alicia Keys
Image
When I perform in front of large audiences, I'm much more comfortable, because I've already performed in front of tiny audiences - which is much harder, honestly. The smaller you strip things down, the more you depend on the songs and yourself, as opposed to arrangements.
Alicia Keys
Image
You have to identify what you care about and why you care about it. It has to be personal. It has to be something that fires you up or means something to you, or it's not going to drive you.

And Im happy that Im not super skinny.

Adam Levine and I remade the Rolling Stones' classic Wild Horses, and it is right up my alley, that whole style. It has a style of its own but still stays very true to the classic arrangement, and I love it.
Alicia Keys
Image
I learned the cello , but I would still need a massive amount of practice. But I do play classical music, so I understand where that comes from.

I've always been very private, maybe because I discovered my mother, who is a wonderful lady, is very emotional.
