Love is wonderful, amazing, and the best thing that can happen to us.
Mary J. Blige
Image
Then my life crashed and burned down: trials, men, drama, no self-love, no identity. A little identity, but not a lot of love for myself, my life.
Mary J. Blige
Image
I care about me now. When I didn't care about me, I was, like, 'Why is this going wrong? Why is my life so bad?' But when you don't care about yourself, nobody else is going to care about you. So I learned to love myself, even if nobody else does.

Negative words are powerful boomerangs so be careful what you say about people and yourself.

Image
I started speaking about what I was dealing with through my music, and 4 million women responded and said, 'Us too, Mary.' And I didn't know that everyone was hurting like I was hurting. I had no idea.

By the time I was a teenager, when I went outside the house, it was about hip-hop all the time. Nothing but hip-hop, block parties.

Image
Don't give up, be positive and if you know someone who knows someone at a record company don't stop beating down their door till you get heard. Don't ever say it'll never happen or it'll never happen.
Mary J. Blige
Image
I've learned so much from all my mistakes. I just wish I had gotten my education.
Mary J. Blige
Image
There are people out there who want to provoke me and bring back the old Mary but I'm not giving them the satisfaction.
Mary J. Blige
Image
You know a lot, but you don't know everything.

Image
There's not enough time to be disrespecting... Life is too short.
Mary J. Blige
Image
When you're going to do whatever you're going to do, you have to get your, put your mind into it.
Mary J. Blige
Image
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'.

I cannot save the world, that's not what I'm trying to do. I guess I'm just trying to walk the walk and be an example to those that want it. Not everybody does, but if Mary J Blige can come out of that same hole you were in, then you can do it too - that's my goal: to do that without saying it, but actually live it.

I'm striving toward this acting thing. I'm definitely gonna work hard on that, whatever comes my way, I'm gonna work hard on it.

I decided to start my own label because so many people with talent come to me wanting to know how they can get in the music business.
Mary J. Blige
Image
The music business is not a good place for people who don't know things.

It hurts when you have to smile and you don't want to smile, but the best thing to do is to smile.
