Mary J Blige Quotes

My responsibility to God is to live. That’s the gift he gave me. What I do with it is up to me Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

Don’t give up, be positive and if you know someone who knows someone at a record company don’t stop beating down their door till you get heard. Don’t ever say it’ll never happen or it’ll never happen Picture Quote #1

I’ve just been growing right along. It’s painful, but it’s a great pain, and I like suffering for great results. It’s like going to the gym. It hurts really bad at first, but after a couple of months and after that diet, you’re looking so hot Picture Quote #1

If I could ever be on a Missy Elliott record, I could then die. Missy Elliott, Mary J. Blige - I love hearing them interviewed, I love the way they talk about their art. They’re very self-assured, they’re funny, they’re inviting. I love it Picture Quote #1

Music makes us want to live. You don’t know how many times people have told me that they’d been down and depressed and just wanted to die. But then a special song caught their ear and that helped give them renewed strength. That’s the power music has Picture Quote #1

As a child I always wanted to be a singer. The music my mother played in the house moved me - Aretha Franklin, Chaka Khan, Mahalia Jackson. It was truly spiritual. It made you understand what God was. We are all spirits. We get depressed. But music makes you want to live. I know my music has saved my life Picture Quote #1

Thank you so much for supporting me from the day I stepped foot into the music industry. It really means something to me to have Maya Angelou speak on my behalf. It also means a lot to have Oprah on my speed dial! Picture Quote #1

I have a song called ‘Decisions’ that features Jamie Foxx, Mary J. Blige, John Legend and Common. It’s about people who have made a decision to really stand by you as friends Picture Quote #1

I think the women - Lauryn Hill, Mary J. Blige, Erykah Badu - are doing new conceptual things and using their voices to create new American music Picture Quote #1

And Mary J. Blige, she’s got all these fur coats and hats and stuff. She’s good; I like her Picture Quote #1

One of the album’s songs features Mary J. Blige, but I don’t want to talk too much about it yet. I think you will hear the music that’s been playing in my head when it comes out Picture Quote #1

I can’t do some of the songs that younger girls like Mary J. Blige and Beyonce are doing. They have their own place and I have my own place Picture Quote #1

It’s a music video but she was real specific on the character that Mary J. Blige was playing, and that I was playing in this video and I told her whenever you get to jump to the big screen I’d love to come with you and she honored that Picture Quote #1

I have a very eclectic iPod. So I’ve got my cardio people - so it’s anything from Beyonce to some Jay-Z to Janelle Monae, her song ‘Tightrope,’ that’s a good cardio song. And then I’ve got Sting. I’ve got Mary J. Blige. I’ve got The Beatles. I’ve got Michael Jackson. I try to pick the songs that I personally love Picture Quote #1

Then my life crashed and burned down: trials, men, drama, no self-love, no identity. A little identity, but not a lot of love for myself, my life Picture Quote #1

It’s that first step-getting out the door-that’s the toughest. If you can do that, you’ve already won Picture Quote #1

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 Picture Quote #1

One day I realized that I wasn’t getting anywhere by blaming other people for my circumstances. I finally understood: Even if you feel someone has wronged you or owes you something, no one is going to give you anything for free Picture Quote #1

In the inner city, there’s a mentality that the government owes you something. My breakthrough came when I stopped feeling sorry for myself and took responsibility for every part of my life. No more pity parties. I’ve gotta love me more than anybody else loves me Picture Quote #1

By the time I was a teenager, when I went outside the house, it was about hip-hop all the time. Nothing but hip-hop, block parties Picture Quote #1

I’ve been praying to God to show me how to forgive myself. Because... maybe... that’s the thing I’ve been searching for Picture Quote #1

If we didn’t have understanding of our journey, we wouldn’t be able to go on. We’d be stuck, like, ‘Why me?’ Picture Quote #1

My journey continues, because I’ve, you know, conquered a lot. And I know how to conquer the rest Picture Quote #1

The younger Mary J. Blige, I would call her, she was very unaware, ignorant Picture Quote #1

I felt ashamed about everything. Me dropping out of high school, me not, you know, just not being beautiful enough. I just didn’t feel like I was smart enough or beautiful enough, you know, for years Picture Quote #1

Yonkers made me strong and made me believe in myself, because so many people would doubt you and not believe. There are people that would believe in you, but the environment was so harsh, nobody wanted you to get out, you know? Picture Quote #1

From being a little girl in the projects, going through all of the mess that I was going through, to ending up at the Inauguration for the first African-American president, I’m speechless right now because I never thought I’d - I never ever - I couldn’t even see that far. Even when I ended up in the music business, I couldn’t see that Picture Quote #1

I believe that anything man himself can do for me, God can do for me in a greater way. I decided to pray and to seek God on my own. I just stayed in The Word. And it worked Picture Quote #1
