I grew up around the theatre. My mother is an actress. I would fall asleep on tons of theatre chairs. It's in my blood it's in my spirit and my fabric of who I am.

Alicia Keys
My mother was raised very, very strict Catholic in the Midwest. There was so much fear and intimidation [in the faith]. So, growing up, I was always looking for my connection. I've found myself praying before meals, before bed there's always been this gratitude for things that are bigger than me.
Alicia Keys
Good food is an amazing blessing. Whenever you can sit down at a table, eat food that is extremely delicious, and are surrounded by people you love...it's: Wow, life is good.
Alicia Keys

Meditation has been a big change for me in a super-positive way. I see the result and strength and clarity - even my creativity is different and more connected. It might be 10 minutes a day it might be 20 minutes a day. But every day in this crazy world, it's a sense of peace and purpose.
Alicia Keys
