There are so many things where I realize, like, simple circumstance, like the simple choice that I made one night to not do that and to do this, one night could have changed everything.

More quotes by 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
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
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
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
I lived with my mom in a really small apartment. My bedroom was like in the living room. That's why I still love to sleep on couches now.
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
Yes I was burned but I called it a lesson learned. Mistake overturned so I call it a lesson learned. My soul has returned so I call it a lesson learned...another lesson learned
Alicia Keys
Early on in my career, I was more closed off in every way. I thought I was protecting myself instead, I was robbing myself of all I could learn and experience.
Alicia Keys
I love Bono. I really respect what he has done for Africa and how he has used his fame to do good in the world. I hope I can do half as much in my life.
Alicia Keys
Some of the greatest artists did their best work when they got political.
Alicia Keys
I promised myself that I'd never actually admit to listening to 'New Kids on the Block.'
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
Everybody goes through their life in different ways. I definitely am having my journey. It evolves and changes. At some moments, I feel totally off center and trying to find my way back.
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 think we deserve people who really, really love us.
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
If I didn't love it, I would not record it.
Alicia Keys
The most important thing is to be proud of the work that you put into something, and put the ego aside.
Alicia Keys
Right now the way I define beauty is individuality and wisdom, which I think creates a certain inner confidence. And not confidence in a way that's only on the surface, but a deep-down knowing of yourself or settling into who you are.
Alicia Keys
How you look is your statement, because it's a claiming of yourself.
