Usher (musician)

I get to see life through rose-colored glasses a lot of the time.

Usher

I guess I had it made. My mother gave me advice – she taught me that women like to be looked in the eye – and my grandmother gave me condoms.

Usher

I guess we’re all kinda searching for a connection with something that’s relevant to our past and speaks to who we are, and maybe helps us make a connection to what we are, and where we come from.

Usher

I have this bodyguard so if I get tired of signing Autographs I ask him to step in. It’s hard because people get angry at you, but I’ve got a life to live too.

Usher

I learned how music works dealing with Jermaine Dupri, and I learned how image works dealing with Puff Daddy.

Usher

I like to release music the way I feel it, as opposed to having a date. The idea of dates, boxes, categories are very scary for me.

Usher

I like to wear things that are daring but also not seem too avant-garde.

Usher

I never hated my father. I would have named my child Usher regardless. I never hated myself because I carried his name, because I made it mean what I wanted it to mean.

Usher

I still believe in love. I believe in marriage.

Usher

I tried football and got my ass beat. I tried baseball, and the ball knocked out one of my teeth.
