Alicia Keys
Only joy comes from song.
Alicia Keys
I think that marriage is beautiful. And if it's a partnership with someone you love, then it really is beautiful. Yeah, I think that marriage does work.
Alicia Keys
If I know everything around the situation, all the facts, I feel like I can handle just about anything.
Alicia Keys
I've always been very private, maybe because I discovered my mother, who is a wonderful lady, is very emotional.
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
I grew up in a pretty tough neighborhood.
Alicia Keys
There was no other path for me. I knew this was my path. I had to follow it.
Alicia Keys
I've been able to find a lot of what I've not had before: freedom, bravery, fearlessness. It's empowering to find those things.
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
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.
Alicia Keys
I'm not ashamed of what I am and that I have curves and that I'm thick. I like my body.
Alicia Keys
There's something so powerful about being my own gorgeous, beautiful, individual, unique self.
Alicia Keys
I'm a very positive person, but this whole concept of having to always be nice, always smiling, always happy, that's not real. It was like I was wearing a mask. I was becoming this perfectly chiselled sculpture, and that was bad. That took a long time to understand.
Alicia Keys
The most important thing to remember is that you can wear all the greatest clothes and all the greatest shoes, but you’ve got to have a good spirit on the inside. That’s what’s really going to make you look like you’re ready to rock the world.
Alicia Keys
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
It's a beautiful blessing that I get to help raise a man. And I want to show him as much as possible.
Alicia Keys
I was always amazed the way people would come in looking one way and transform completely to the point where I couldn't recognize their language, their accent, the way they looked, their hair, their face even changed becoming so inside of the character.
Alicia Keys
I love being a mom. And I think what I love the most is the way it makes me think about what's important and what's not important. What to fight for and what to just be cool with. What it is that I'm teaching through example and what it is that I was taught that I don't want to teach.
Alicia Keys
Once people see this 'Unplugged,' I just want them to feel the spontaneity, to feel passionate... I want you to see another side of me, that's free, and feel where my head is, where whatever happens, happens. I want you to feel inspired.
