My fifth mother is Mother Nature - the things I had to learn on my own, the understanding I had to come to and still have to come to as a young woman, as a responsible mother, a responsible granddaughter and child. She teaches me willpower, honesty, and the things we need to heal ourselves from moment to moment.

Erykah Badu
I think a lot of people have lost respect for the individual, you know, the individual, the person who doesn't conform.
Erykah Badu
As Erykah Badu, it has nothing to do with me, the way I look, my hair wrap, my style, it's about you and what you feel for my music. If I can make you feel like the way that people who influenced me made me feel, that's completion.
Erykah Badu
My favorite jewelry, it's just what I'm feeling at the time.
