More quotes by Lionel Richie
Believe me, I love commerce as much as the rest of the readers of 'Businessweek.' But in art, you have to be true to yourself and your musical vision. People have known me well for a long time, so if I was chasing a trend and doing something that wasn't authentic to who I am, they would know it in just a few seconds.
Lionel Richie
Forget about surviving 40 years in the music business. Just surviving 27 years of Nicole Richie has been a struggle-and-a-half, I want to tell you. I stand here as a survivor, I want you to know, for all the parents out there.
Lionel Richie
Traveling did a great deal to me. I found that when I travel and just sit in the corner and watch, a million ideas come to me.
Lionel Richie
I just like people. I'll hold a conversation at a gas station. It's not about the fame and the fortune, I just like people.
Lionel Richie

Lionel Richie
I'm a songwriter, and people will tell you the greatest stories about their lives, whether you want to hear it or not.
Lionel Richie
Forget about 40 years in show business. Just surviving 27 years of Nicole Richie is enough.
Lionel Richie
I always like to challenge myself. I never want to be put into a box.
Lionel Richie
I think the whole world is dying to hear someone say, 'I love you.' I think that if I can leave the legacy of love and passion in the world, then I think I've done my job in a world that's getting colder and colder by the day.
Lionel Richie
When your past calls, don't answer. It has nothing new to say.
Lionel Richie
I find myself going out on the road to get my confidence back, because I lose it at home.
Lionel Richie
Today we've learned to celebrate mediocrity. Back in the day we had creative artists today we have created artists.
Lionel Richie
Lionel Richie, love song, OK, thank you very much, good-bye. And all of a sudden I realized that, in my career, what has made my career has always been the surprises.
Lionel Richie
When will we ever learn, there's nowhere else we can turn.
Lionel Richie
Soul is a feeling, not a color.
Lionel Richie
The music business was not safe, but it was FUN. It was like falling in love with a woman you know is bad for you, but you love every minute with her, anyway.
Lionel Richie
The best compliment that has ever been given to me was, I was at the airport one day and a guy came in and said, 'Lionel, my wife loves you, the kids love you, my mother-in-law loves you, the family loves you.
