Notes on Beyonce Knowles

"Every day I look into the mirror and find something wrong. My legs could be more muscular, my waist just a little smaller and my boobs could be a little bigger. But, I would never have surgery." - Knowles quoted to People, Oct. 21, 2002

"I guess I'm a daredevil. I guess that's my dangerous side, I like to jump off boats and cliffs and things like that!" - Knowles quoted in People, March 16, 2004

"I just wanted people to really hear me, hear my voice and my tastes. For the first time, I wasn't afraid, I didn't feel limited. I wanted people to hear my range, because I can sing like a rapper, I can flow, I can sing soul songs, I can do rock, and I wanted people to hear that." - Beyonce on breaking out as a solo artist, quoted in Vanity Fair, November 2005

"I make black records. I write records like I speak, and I don’t try to change my songs so everyone else likes them." - Beyoncé, to Blender magazine, October 2006

"People want me to be mean or arrogant and extravagant, so everyone just expects something different when they meet me." - Knowles quoted in Us, March 17, 2003

"She's something like a phenomenom. Beyonce has the ability to do a movie, do a group project, then come back and do her own thing or whatever she chooses." - Kim Burse (director of A&R at Music World) Vibe, September 2002

"We will remain together as long as we have fun on stage and make good records. But I wouldn't suggest this as a career for anyone." - Beyonce Knowles to Reuters, July 8, 2002
