More quotes by 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. It reminds me to live in the moment.
Alicia Keys
Not because I'm trying to be fabulous, but I love those big crazy Jackie O shades.
Alicia Keys
What acting does bring that music doesn't bring for me is the opportunity is the opportunity to be completely different in every way from whom you normally are, the person that you are when you wake up in the morning is who you are in your life. But to take that and have the opportunity to be the complete opposite of that, is the excitement of it.
Alicia Keys
Everything you want to be, you already are. You're simply on the path to discovering it.
Alicia Keys
I always want to stay focused on who I am, even as I'm discovering who I am.
Alicia Keys
If we took the time to learn more about different places and people, perhaps we would have more empathy for each other.
Alicia Keys
I've met some serious aliens in my life, for sure. I'm sure you've seen a UFO. Haven't all of us seen something flying in the sky, and it's at some random time of night that doesn't make sense, and it's not the shape of a plane? I don't know if I'd go with an alien to space. I would have to feel the alien's vibe. I'm a vibe person.
Alicia Keys
I realize that I want something more. Success is great, but then you also wake up in your hotel room at four in the morning and you're like, wouldn't it be nice to have someone here with me.
Alicia Keys
And I love kick boxing. It's a lot of fun. It gives you a lot of confidence when you can kick somebody in the head.
Alicia Keys
I would hate to make music and people love me for something that isn't me.
Alicia Keys
No one will take care of you if you don't take care of yourself.
Alicia Keys
All of us are different. That's what makes us interesting and special. I don't want to be anything like another person. I want to be totally myself and go against the grain, forge my own path. I've learned that being different is what makes you stand out. It makes everything so much more intriguing.
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
We listen so much to everybody - more than ever, because we have a kabillion voices whose opinion we can access - and we care so much if everybody agrees with us. To bust through all of the noise is very challenging.
Alicia Keys
I find that the love we share fills me up and makes me see and appreciate life in a different way.
Alicia Keys
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
Listening to great music and art inspires me and recharges me.
Alicia Keys
So we come together before you on this day, March 30th, 2015, with one voice in unity in the hopes that today will be another one of those moments in time, a moment that will forever change the course of music history.
Alicia Keys
If I know everything around the situation, all the facts, I feel like I can handle just about anything.
Alicia Keys
I grew up in the middle of everything. I walked the streets alone, I rode the trains alone, I came home at three in the morning alone that was what I did.
Alicia Keys
