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.

More quotes by Alicia Keys
I'm inspired by many of my friends, colleagues, and the extraordinary people I've been fortunate enough to meet along the way.
Alicia Keys
I'm discovering my sexual side, and exploring relationships. You know, sensual stuff. And I'm discovering a lot of sides of myself, stuff I've buried. So the music is also therapeutic, to come to terms with things. And I feel now like my head is in the right space.
Alicia Keys
Soul music is timeless.
Alicia Keys
There is this fallacy about how women are catty, that we're all in competition with each other. I'd say: As opposed to getting swept up in jealousy, use that pang to give you an indication of what you are looking for.
Alicia Keys
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.
Alicia Keys
My mixed-race background made me a broad person, able to relate to different cultures. But any woman of colour, even a mixed colour, is seen as black in America. So that's how I regard myself.
Alicia Keys
Through the shake of an earthquake I will never fall. That’s how strong my love is.
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
We're all going to change. Otherwise, it's boring. Who wants to stay the damn same all their life?
Alicia Keys
There was no other path for me. I knew this was my path. I had to follow it.
Alicia Keys
Listening to great music and art inspires me and recharges me.
Alicia Keys
I think there's an energy about just remaining excited. Like, you can't be excited when you're not doing something new.
Alicia Keys
Love me like you'll never see me again.
Alicia Keys
It's when we become afraid of everything and worried about everything that you are never going to reach your highest potential.
Alicia Keys
Be driven, be focused, but enjoy every moment, because it only happens once.
Alicia Keys
I don't think even when you find a person, you can be completely honest, ever. There's still pieces of you that you don't give away. I do believe you always need that place where it's just you, your thoughts, no one else's judgment or anything.
Alicia Keys
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.
Alicia Keys
What breaks my heart is suffering of any kind.
Alicia Keys
Risk the fall to know how it feels to fly.
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.
