Artists in general never stay in the same place, we keep growing. It's still you, you still have that core that you always had, but you work with new people and hear new things.

More quotes by John Legend
Why wouldn't I help? What good reason do I have as a human being with power and a sense of empathy and morality, why wouldn't I do something?
John Legend
I gravitate toward people that are a little more outrageous than I am. And we complement each other well.
John Legend
Every artist wants some sort of feedback, because you make this music and you hope people love it and you want to hear if they love it and what they love about it, what their favorite song is, what they think the next single should be. I like to hear those things.
John Legend
A just society is not one built on fear or repression or vengeance or exclusion, but one built on love. Love for our families. Love for our neighbors. Love for the least among us. Love for those who look different or worship differently. Love for those we don't even know.
John Legend
We should care about what is going on in the world.
John Legend
I've written good love songs when I have been in love and I've written good love songs when I haven't.
John Legend
As a nation - and as a world - we need more truth.
John Legend
Critics like to describe and categorize things, and categories often have a way of limiting people.
John Legend
Music, to me, if it's good, it's good. That's all that matters.
John Legend
I keep learning, listening, growing and experimenting.
John Legend
We're so used to having everything we want at our fingertips so I think that when things get tough it's difficult for people to persist through that.
John Legend
My head’s under water but I’m breathing fine
John Legend
I think people relate to the music because I have a sense of empathy, and I think I have a good understanding about relationships, and I talk about them in a real, honest way
John Legend
The issue I focus on the most is extreme poverty. I think it's kind of out of sight out of mind. I wish there would be more stories about that to connect people to what's happening. To personalize it, to make it real to people, to inspire them to action.
John Legend
The best way to fight poverty is to empower people through access to quality education
John Legend
We're just ordinary people. We don't know which way to go.
John Legend
Sometimes there's that perfect moment when the crowd, the music, the energy of the room come together in a way that brings me to tears.
John Legend
I only want to be associated with music that is high quality. That's my main criteria.
John Legend
For me, no matter how much money you want to make off of singing, no matter what kind of fame you want to make, achieve, the most important thing to me is making music that you're proud of, making music that comes from you, comes from an authentic place in you.
John Legend
I'm trying to be me and embrace all the parts of me that have grown up, listened to more music and soaked up more influences.
John Legend
