More quotes by Mary J. Blige
We are all just a work in progress.
Mary J. Blige
The important thing is to realize that no matter what people's opinions may be, they're only just that - people's opinions. You have to believe in your heart what you know to be true about yourself. And let that be that.
Mary J. Blige
I didn't never have to go to a therapist. I just always put it in a song and you heard me.
Mary J. Blige
I used to think I was ugly. I thought I looked like a camel. A person who doesn't love themselves, they will see anything that pops up on their face. I've seen squirrels, I've seen a bird, and I've seen all kinds of animals on my face. But that is the result of self-hate. I've learned to say: 'You know what? I am a beautiful black woman'.
Mary J. Blige
My main exercise is cardio. The treadmill is fine, but running outdoors gives me the best results. I try to log 6 to 8 miles a week. I could be in the worst mood, but when I do my cardio, I feel much, much better.
Mary J. Blige
No one compares to you. Just remember that. There's no one out there - there's only one of you, and that's it. And whatever you believe about you that's great, no one else has it. And I can't look like you, there's no way I can slip into your body and be you, and you can't slip into my body and be me. This is all we're gonna get.
Mary J. Blige
It's OK showing yourself some love.
Mary J. Blige
I don't know what kind of God the rest of y'all are serving, but the God I serve says, 'Mary, you need to be the hottest thing this year, and I'm gonna make sure you're doing that.'
Mary J. Blige
I know who I am. I am not perfect. I'm not the most beautiful woman in the world. But I'm one of them.
Mary J. Blige
Larry David makes me laugh.
Mary J. Blige
Love is wonderful, amazing, and the best thing that can happen to us.
Mary J. Blige
The music business is not a good place for people who don't know things.
Mary J. Blige
There's not enough time to be disrespecting... Life is too short.
Mary J. Blige
I've been praying to God to show me how to forgive myself. Because... maybe... that's the thing I've been searching for.
Mary J. Blige
This music business can suck all the love out of you, all the compassion for people - you can start to think you're better than them. But I want to continue to let people know that I'm no better and no worse, I'm just like you.
Mary J. Blige
The younger Mary J. Blige, I would call her, she was very unaware, ignorant.
Mary J. Blige
When I was five years old I was molested and just, you know. I remember feeling, literally right before it happened, I just could not believe that this person was going to do this to me. That thing followed me all my life. The shame of thinking my molestation was my fault - it led me to believe I wasn't worth anything.
Mary J. Blige
Cause I'm no better than you, you, or you. And I can't get on no throne and preach, 'cause I'm not God.
Mary J. Blige
As a kid, I was in love with Michael Jackson, and I just knew I was going to marry him someday.
Mary J. Blige
It's challenging to find an identity as a young person if you don't have the sustenance of love, because you're being shipped around.
Mary J. Blige
