More quotes by Ray Charles
Sighted people, you gotta deal with them.
Ray Charles
Rhythm and blues used to be called race music. ... This music was going on for years, but nobody paid any attention to it.
Ray Charles
I just want to make my mark, leave something musically good behind.
Ray Charles
I had to pawn my clothes just to pay my rent.
Ray Charles
I don't know what would have happened to me if I hadn't been able to hear.
Ray Charles
Goodbye don't mean gone.
Ray Charles
I'm not into the money thing. You can only sleep in one bed at a time. You can only eat one meal at a time, or be in one car at a time. So I don't have to have millions of dollars to be happy. All I need are clothes on my back, a decent meal, and a little loving when I feel like it. That's the bottom line.
Ray Charles
Music is the chalk to the blackboard of life. Without it everything is a blank slate
Ray Charles
I can't help what I sound like. What I sound like is what i am. You know? I cannot be anything other that what I am.
Ray Charles
Just like you can buy grades of silk, you can buy grades of justice.
Ray Charles
I'm a firm believer in God himself, but that's as far as I can go. I'm not any denomination. I'm not Catholic or Presbyterian or Baptist or Methodist or Jewish or Muslim. I'm none of those things. And I'm sure that's just fine with God.
Ray Charles
Just because you can't see anything , doesn't mean you should shut your eyes.
Ray Charles
[On his heroin addiction:] I did it to myself. It wasn't society...it wasn't a pusher, it wasn't being blind or being black or being poor. It was all my doing.
Ray Charles
You got to set your mind right and the rest will come to you naturally. No restrictions, no hang-ups, no stupid rules, no formalities, no forbidden fruit - just everyone getting and giving as much as he and she can.
Ray Charles
There's nothing written in the Bible, Old or New testament, that says, 'If you believe in Me, you ain't going to have no troubles.'
Ray Charles
I heard someone say that all black people got rhythm. Bullshit.
Ray Charles
I think that most great artists who are extremely known, as I am, would intimidate a lot of people. I don't want to do that to people, but I know I do.
Ray Charles
Art Tatum -- he was a genius. And Einstein, not me.
Ray Charles
There are many spokes on the wheel of life. First, we're here to explore new possibilities.
Ray Charles
There's such a thing as too much happiness and sadness. What I'm after is contentment.
Ray Charles
