More quotes by Usher
I'm so sad to hear the horrible news of Amy Winehouse's death. I'm so happy I knew you Amy...Rest Well. Gone Too Soon...we'll miss you!!
Usher
If somebody steps on your shoes and ruins them, don't freak out.. get a new pair of shoes. If you miss something, don't freak out.. there's nothing you can do to change it.. just move on
Usher
You know, I like to release music the way I feel it, as opposed to having a date.
Usher
Normally you don't have the benefit of preparing someone to pay homage to you and what you've done in your life. Usually, you pass away and someone does a tribute to your character and who you were during a specific period of your life.
Usher
I guess I had it made. My mother gave me advice - she taught me that women like to be looked in the eye - and my grandmother gave me condoms.
Usher
We all possess exactly what we need to be our greatest selves.
Usher
I think anybody, not just children, is a product of a great environment. If you put them in a better environment from a sad situation, nine times out of 10, they'll go in the right direction.
Usher
Giving a child an education is by far one of the most important investments we can make.
Usher
Breaking up is a natural evolution when you try to figure out what you want in life. If you're with an individual who isn't moving in the same direction and at the same rate that you are, it ain't going to work.
Usher
The more youth begin to recognize that they have a voice, the more change is possible.
Usher
Success is all about having the confidence to shoot for something even if it seems impossible.
Usher
I think it's important for us to believe in one another's capabilities. If I didn't have someone to believe in me, I wouldn't be the individual I am today. Neither would I strive for new territory or new direction or to believe in myself.
Usher
I tried football and got my ass beat. I tried baseball, and the ball knocked out one of my teeth.
Usher
I've been working so hard, I'm about to have a Mariah Carey.
Usher
How do I define who Usher is? I'm still doing it - every day, every new opportunity, every stage, every interview, every other thing that I've done, every time that I've invested in anything that is all the definition of who I am.
Usher
It's a mission for me to make sure that philanthropy doesn't feel like a vintage hand-me-down from mom or dad. I want people to feel compelled to do something positive because they just love it, they're excited about it, and it's cool.
Usher
I'm a sponge, the more I absorb, the more I am able to articulate my vision, as artists do, like Picasso. I'm an artist in that light. I went from being an artist to an artiste.
Usher
Success is about dedication. You may not be where you want to be or do what you want to do when you're on the journey. But you've got to be willing to have vision and foresight that leads you to an incredible end.
Usher
In time we grow older, we grow wiser, we grow smarter, and we're better. And I feel like I'm becoming more seasoned, although I don't have my salt-and-pepper hair.
Usher
I'm a flamboyant type of guy, a cooler version of Liberace.
Usher
