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

Prince
Time is a mind construct. It's not real.
Prince
Sometimes it takes years for a person to become an overnight success.

This is what it sounds like when doves cry.
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 At one time MTV was hip and suddenly it became outdated.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
When I found out that there was eight Presidents before George Washington, I wanted to smack somebody.
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’m still very much a kid inside myself.
Prince
