Questlove Quotes

I really appreciate when people use their fame and their voice for more than just self-promotion, starting a dialogue about a topic or an issue much bigger than themselves Picture Quote #1

When you live your life through records, the records are a record of your life Picture Quote #1

Switching off perfection switched on the human quality Picture Quote #1

The only mofos in my circle are people that I can learn from Picture Quote #1

How do you plan a rebirth? I’m not sure you do. You just stand in the darkness until you can’t endure it any long, and then you move forward until you’re standing in the light Picture Quote #1

Every time a new record started, people exhaled with pleasure, or their bodies moved automatically. I really started getting high off of the euphoric exclamations. Every record I put on was like a baptism Picture Quote #1

It’s a funny word, persistence. It means not giving up, but it also means just passing on through time Picture Quote #1

I keep moving through time and time keeps moving through me. And through that process, life takes shape. The question is what shape it is. I’m not the first person to ask that question, or to see how absurd it is to think there’s a real answer. Maybe life’s a circle Picture Quote #1

Resistance here doesn’t mean revolution. It doesn’t mean storming the barricades. Resistance means using art for the things that it does best, which is to create human portraits and communicate ideas and forge a climate where people of different races or classes are known to you because they make themselves known. In the simplest terms, art humanizes. It opens the circuit of empathy. And once that process happens, it’s that much harder to think of people as part of a policy or a statistic. Art reverses the alienation that can creep into society Picture Quote #1

I don’t have friends, and it’s hard for me to make new friends. Right now, the people that are in my life are the people that I work with Picture Quote #1

I think the music comes first, then comes the fashion, and thus, the lifestyle. I believe it starts with music, and then the person delivering it delivers the lifestyle, the fashion. Madonna is a great example of that Picture Quote #1

Classical music requires an immense amount of concentration, and I don’t know if I would’ve been that committed to that particular life Picture Quote #1

I’ve come to the conclusion that the average person can do about four things a day, like four real things a day Picture Quote #1

The president is just the coach of a football team. You need the right support, the right stadium, the right players, the right staff. An excellent coach is not going to win games Picture Quote #1

Funk never dies. It is eternal. It just smells a little different from time to time Picture Quote #1

I cannot keep a girlfriend longer than seven months. I have 12 jobs. I don’t have time for my personal life. I’m fully aware that this is the sacrifice Picture Quote #1

I hate holidays because it’s the quietest; it’s the most deafening sound in my apartment Picture Quote #1
