More quotes by Alicia Keys
There's too much darkness in the world. Everywhere you turn, someone is tryin' to tear someone down in some way everywhere you go, there's a feeling of inadequacy, or a feeling that you're not good enough. I want to bring a certain light to the world.
Alicia Keys
When I really need it, talking is the best way to deal with emotional pain.
Alicia Keys
Something I've learned from people like U2, the Stones and Lenny Kravitz is that the grind of live shows is so necessary [to build your career].
Alicia Keys
I don't dream - only if I'm uncomfortable or I'm going through something.
Alicia Keys
I can do what I want to do, lucky me. But when these people are coming at me and asking these things, they don't really care about me. And I have felt like there were all these people who just wanted to use me.
Alicia Keys
You just can't take a day for granted. We had to work really hard for anything, and so that's been instilled in me. And I don't look at myself as better than anybody else, because in an instant everything can change.
Alicia Keys
I was tired and I had overworked myself and burnt myself out. So I went to Egypt by myself. When I saw what was built there, it made me understand how powerful we are, that we can create anything. And I felt like I needed to create things that were timeless too.
Alicia Keys
I'm so grateful that I can play and that I can execute what I hear in my head, because that's the tricky part.
Alicia Keys
I thought I had to be perfect. I would often make choices I thought would make everyone else happy. I lived at a pace that was good for my career, whether it was good for me or not. I have learned how important it is to check in with myself and listen, really listen.
Alicia Keys
I've always expressed myself best through writing. I've gotten out all of my deepest feelings that way for as long as I can remember.
Alicia Keys
I've met many young women who are HIV positive and courageously fighting the disease. Their determination to live a full life and see their children live in a better world is deeply inspiring to me.
Alicia Keys
When you're talented, you're talented.
Alicia Keys
Cause I am a Superwoman, Yes I am, Yes she is, Even when I'm a mess, I still put on a vest, With an S on my chest, Oh yes, I'm a Superwoman, ... And all my sisters, Coming together, Say yes I will, Yes I can
Alicia Keys
Rarely, I think, do you find a relationship where you can experience things equally.
Alicia Keys
I just wanted to be who I was, which was like so many other girls I knew. We grew up in the city, had a hard edge and obstacles to overcome, but we were still young and beautiful. I didn't want to be all dressed up, all made up - I wanted to be myself, which hadn't been done before.
Alicia Keys
Here's my pet peeve: The not-so-unstated rule that all women are only to be treated as sexual objects and gawked at-you know, sitting up against a car, washing something, bending over, licking something. That just drives me crazy.
Alicia Keys
I think what happens in the world, and I think it's part human nature and part programming, is we become an emulation of what we see. We become clones of each other.
Alicia Keys
I don't have a ton of friends, but the friends I have are great ones. I don't have huge family, but the family I have is a great one.
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
What breaks my heart is suffering of any kind. Too often, our world is divisive and cruel where it needs to be uniting and loving.
