More quotes by 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
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
I don't really care so much what people say about me because it usually is a reflection of who they are. For example, if people wish I would sound like I used to sound, then it says more about them than it does me.
Prince
Don't know what 2 say about Dunk-a-roos. They're just good! Sometimes you want a food that is comfortable and takes you back. For me, it's those crazy little kangaroo crackers.
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
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
Pop life Everybody needs a thrill Pop life We all got a space 2 fill Pop life Everybody can't be on top But life it ain't real funky Unless it's got that pop Dig it.
Prince
Record contracts are just like - I'm gonna say the word, slavery.
Prince
I am a firm believer in reincarnation for people who either have more work to do or have so much debt to pay back that they have to be here.
Prince
When I found out that there was eight Presidents before George Washington, I wanted to smack somebody.
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
Sometimes it takes years for a person to become an overnight success.
Prince
I really believe in finding new ways to distribute my music.
Prince
Hard to say what's right when all I wanna do is wrong.
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
Compassion is an action word with no boundaries.
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
Cool means being able to hang with yourself. All you have to ask yourself is 'Is there anybody I`m afraid of? Is there anybody who if I walked into a room and saw, I`d get nervous?' If not, then you`re cool.
Prince
The voice that U hear is the alchemy of Ur mind.
Prince
Minor keys and drugs don't make a roller skate jam.
