I believe in the limitlessness of humans. We're capable of incredible things. At times, that realization is frightening.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
I'm a very positive person, but this whole concept of having to always be nice, always smiling, always happy, that's not real. It was like I was wearing a mask. I was becoming this perfectly chiselled sculpture, and that was bad. That took a long time to understand.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
I love my heritage! I have my mother, who is an Irish-Italian, and my father who is African, so I have the taste buds of an Italian and the spice of an African.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
I have big everything on the bottom, but I love my legs. You've got to love what's yours.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
I was tired and I had overworked myself and burnt myself out. So I went to Egypt by myself. When I saw what was built there, it made me understand how powerful we are, that we can create anything. And I felt like I needed to create things that were timeless too.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
I've stepped more into my business and really... taken control for how I want that to be.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
I've stepped more into my womanhood, I'm a mother now, I'm having a beautiful relationship as a wife and as a friend.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
I really appreciate Frank Ocean's lyrical style, I appreciate the way that he can kind of draw you into this personal space, but it's still lyrical. It's almost poetic, in a way, but it's very personal at the same time.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
When I was first learning songs, I'd have a favorite song, and I'd take the chords and twist them around. I'd learn the chords and then play them backward. That was my first experimenting with writing a song.

Quote by -Alicia Keys
I love Bono. I really respect what he has done for Africa and how he has used his fame to do good in the world. I hope I can do half as much in my life.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
A lot of times I watch TV and I watch film and there's so many things I'd love to talk about that I feel don't get the opportunity to be shown. Sometimes things become very stereotypical and one-sided, and I feel like it's such a colorful world.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
Adam Levine and I remade the Rolling Stones' classic Wild Horses, and it is right up my alley, that whole style. It has a style of its own but still stays very true to the classic arrangement, and I love it.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
Once people see this 'Unplugged,' I just want them to feel the spontaneity, to feel passionate... I want you to see another side of me, that's free, and feel where my head is, where whatever happens, happens. I want you to feel inspired.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
I believe Aids is the most important issue we face, because how we treat the poor is a reflection of who we are as a people.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
If I want to be alone, some place I can write, I can read, I can pray, I can cry, I can do whatever I want - I go to the bathroom.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
When I was younger, studying classical music, I really had to put in the time. Three hours a day is not even nice - you have to put in six.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
The last thing I want is to walk into my house after a long day and see all the Grammys and awards. It would make me feel weird.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
Sometimes I've gotten photographs back and people have literally shaven off pieces of me, and I tell them to put it back.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
Not because I'm trying to be fabulous, but I love those big crazy Jackie O shades.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
My mother is an actress, and she used to drag me from theater to theater and reading to reading.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
It's not until I hear songs that I've done, that I realize how much of an inspiration music from the '60s and '70s has been.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
I'm not ashamed of what I am and that I have curves and that I'm thick. I like my body.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
I see what happens when one gets very attached to material things. That's just not what my life is.
Quote by -Alicia Keys
I promised myself that I'd never actually admit to listening to 'New Kids on the Block.'
