Money won't buy you happiness, but it'll pay for the search
Prince
Trees are worth more alive than dead
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
If you see a man opening a car door for a woman, it means one of two things: it's either a new woman or a new car!

There's something about having people around you giving you support that is - it's motivating, and once I got that support from people then I believed I could do anything.

I ain't got no money - But I'm rich on personality
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
When you don't talk down to your audience, then they can grow with you. I give them a lot of credit to be able to hang with me this long, because I've gone through a lot of changes, but they've allowed me to grow, and thus we can tackle some serious subjects and try to just be better human beings, all of us.
Prince
The voice that U hear is the alchemy of Ur mind.
Prince
Time is a mind construct. It's not real.
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
Record contracts are just like - I'm gonna say the word, slavery.
Prince
Sometimes it [music in my head] is a curse, but it's also a blessing. It is a gift that I am completely grateful for. That's why I keep [making music], because I don't want to be ungrateful for the gift.
Prince
All these non-singing, non-dancing, wish-I-had-me-some-clothes fools who tell me my albums suck. Why should I pay any attention to them?
Prince
I’m still very much a kid inside myself.
Prince
I'm going down 2 Alphabet Street I'm gonna crown the first girl that I meet I'm gonna talk so sexy She'll want me from my head 2 my feet.
Prince
Our [generation] people have the worst diet of anybody. I'm ready to put a farmer on my payroll. We've got to get back to growing our own food. You are what you eat!
Prince
The only thing I could think of - because I really don't like categories - but the only thing I could think of is inspirational, and I think music that is from the heart falls right into that category.
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
C'mon everybody, yeah, this is your life I'm talking about a revolution we gotta organize We don't need no segregation, we don't need no race New age revelation, I think we got a case. I'm OK as long as u are here with me Sexuality is all we ever need.
Prince
