“But now I realize that this record business really needs me. No one el...” — Erykah Badu Quote

“But now I realize that this record business really needs me. No one else is trying to take a chance or do something different.”

“Oh, yeah, I see the world differently now. Actually, when I first had the baby, I was breast-feeding him for two years straight. So we were together for two years of his life, every single day, all hours of the day. So I was two people, and I eventually morphed back into one.”

“I try to be honest and I keep moving.”

“Playing it safe isn't fun; you have to take a chance.”

“There are people who are able to plan their career, their future, but I've never had any talent for that. I just do things and hope for the best. Say yes, take a chance, and sometimes it's terrific and sometimes it's not.”

“Take a chance on yourself... what's the worst that can happen?”
