More quotes by Prince
Repetition is beautiful.
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
Sometimes it takes years for a person to become an overnight success.
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
As long as I do not take myself too seriously I should not be too badly off.
Prince
A strong spirit transcends rules.
Prince
I really believe in finding new ways to distribute my music.
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
I have a writing addiction.
Prince
There's this thing called compulsory licensing law that allows artists through the record companies to take your music at will without your permission.
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
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 believe in singles. The singles market has changed. I am trying to get back to the old days of releasing albums at will, like Star Wars coming out again.
Prince
There's always a rainbow at the end of every rain.
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
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
Compassion is an action word with no boundaries.
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
Even the soldiers need a break sometimes.
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
