More quotes by Prince
Repetition is beautiful.
Prince
How can you just leave me standing? Alone in a world that's so cold? (So cold) Maybe I'm just too demanding, Maybe I'm just like my father too bold.Maybe you're just like my mother She's never satisfied (She's never satisfied) Why do we scream at each other? This is what it sounds like when doves cry.
Prince
Now where I come from We don't let society Tell us how it's supposed to be Our clothes, our hair We don't care It's all about being there Everybody's going Uptown That's where I wanna be Uptown Set your mind free.
Prince
I try not to repeat myself. It's the hardest thing in the world to do -- there are only so many notes one human being can master. .
Prince
I’m still very much a kid inside myself.
Prince

Prince
The Internet's completely over. [...] The Internet's like MTV. At one time MTV was hip and suddenly it became outdated. Anyway, all these computers and digital gadgets are no good. [...] They just fill your head with numbers and that can't be good for you.
Prince
Look, you see those groups talkin' about negativity and anger, and they'd do that for two albums, and then you'd see them change up. I knew they couldn't do a Kurt Cobain on their whole career. You can't stay like that all the time. It's like when Hammer tried to go gangster. You can't be something that you're not.
Prince
I knew a girl named Nikki I guess u could say she was a sex fiend I met her in a hotel lobby Masturbating with a magazine She said how'd u like 2 waste some time? And I could not resist when I saw little Nikki grind.
Prince
It's a hurtful place, the world, in and of itself. We don't need to add to it. And we're in a place now where we all need one another, and it's going to get rougher.
Prince
Real music lovers are actually my favourite kind of people because they like to know, rather than just be told what to think.
Prince
You can judge the success of a man by his bodyguards!
Prince
There is something that happens when you get emancipated. You approach life differently. You eat differently. You respect yourself more. You respect the gift you have been given.
Prince
Record contracts are just like - I'm gonna say the word, slavery.
Prince
I ain't got no money - But I'm rich on personality
Prince
What people have to realize is that if one has a firm belief in God and the spirit then one does not make statements that are negative and untrue.
Prince
Michael Jackson's album was only called Bad because there wasn't enough room on the sleeve for Pathetic.
Prince
I have a very thick skin. I take everything that comes and let it bounce right off me because I know the time will come when nobody will be able to speak falsely.
Prince
