When I was younger, my mother and I, we'd have these crazy, crazy fights. Everyone would storm out mad, and the only way that I'd be able to express myself was to write her. We would write letters back and forth for days. When I'm writing, I feel uninterrupted. I write what I'm going through and how I see it.
Alicia Keys

My mom is definitely my rock.
Alicia Keys
Be driven, be focused, but enjoy every moment, because it only happens once.

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
Love is giving of yourself in a way that is free of fear.
Alicia Keys
