QUOTES BY Mary J. Blige


I know who I am. I am not perfect. I'm not the most beautiful woman in the world. But I'm one of them.

You can look at my palm and see the storm coming. Read the book of my life and see I've overcome it.

There's so many things that life is, and no matter how many breakthroughs, trials will exist and we're going to get through it. Just be strong.

I don't know. Only God knows where the story ends for me, but I know where the story begins. It's up to us to choose, whether we win or lose and I choose to win.

You can hate me. You can go out there and say anything you want about me, But you will love me later because I told you the truth.

Believe in yourself when nobody else does.

Life is full of trials and tribulations. It's dramatic when you don't treat people right when you're in the tribulations, but I know now how to get out of it. You have to make a decision to say 'No more', and then you know what to do when the trials happen.

You either learn from your experiences or go back and do the same thing, and I learned from my experiences.

So as long as I'm a human being and I'm not perfect, I'm able to say I'm having some growing pains. Because in order to sustain where you are once you made such a breakthrough that everyone is looking at you, now everyone is like, 'Ooh, is she gonna make a mistake?' Yes, I'm going to make a mistake. Yes, I'm still gonna do things.
