More quotes by Alicia Keys
Listening to great music and art inspires me and recharges me.
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
I don't dream - only if I'm uncomfortable or I'm going through something.
Alicia Keys
I think following my instinct has proven to lead me in the right direction, and it's hard to hear sometimes, because it's a noisy world and there's a lot of people talking to you.

Alicia Keys
Hand me the world on a silver platter, and what good would it be?
Alicia Keys
My parents weren't married. It wasn't like my dad up and left. I maintained a steady relationship with my grandparents. My dad's mother is my nana, and I'm closer to her than almost anybody in this world.
Alicia Keys
I just wanted to be who I was, which was like so many other girls I knew. We grew up in the city, had a hard edge and obstacles to overcome, but we were still young and beautiful. I didn't want to be all dressed up, all made up - I wanted to be myself, which hadn't been done before.
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
For me, doing a show, the excitement of singing live, and the possibility that you're not gonna be perfect - that's the thrill of it.
Alicia Keys
Love will come find you Just to remind you Of who you are [...] See that's the thing about love [...] Then life It will embrace you Totally amaze you So you don't give up
Alicia Keys
I grew up in a pretty tough neighborhood. I grew up around drugs, alcohol, prostitution, I grew up around everything, and I think part of seeing that from really young has made me really steer very far away from it in all of its forms.
Alicia Keys
And Im happy that Im not super skinny.
Alicia Keys
