Robin Thicke quotes:

Bob Dylan and John Lennon and Bruce Springsteen, these are soul guys. Bruce Springsteen might not sing like Otis Redding, but he sings with white soul. He's singing and he's writing songs from the bottom of his gut.

I'd like to collaborate with Jay-Z and Mary J. Blige.

I don't like labels, but I do have blue eyes and I'm soulful, so what am I going to do?

I love 'Game of Thrones.'

Inspiration and stealing are two completely different things. If somebody wants to make a song like "Stairway to Heaven" and writes a song on acoustic guitar, Led Zeppelin does not own every song that's on acoustic guitar for the rest of time.

Growing up, I loved Bill Cosby.

I love 'Game of Thrones.

I just want to say that dreams do come true. Don't ever give up on your dreams. Sometimes it just takes a little bit longer for some of us.

I was seven years old the first time I saw Michael Jackson. That changed everything.

Right now, with terrorism and poverty and Wall Street and Social Security having problems, nudity should not be the issue.

To be a part of your biggest days - you know, your child being conceived or born, or you walking down the aisle - there's really nothing sweeter. That's the truth.

I really try to wake up with my music the same as I do with my life, and that is with no expectations. I just feel what I feel that day and follow it.

When I wrote for Jordan Knight, I was 17 or 18, they were pretty much the only songs I was writing. By the time people like Christina or Usher came around, I was able to know that I was writing for different points of view and people that might not want to say certain things. So you have to be considerate of whichever artist you're writing for.

I spent my whole career playing it safe, being a gentleman, never doing anything controversial.

I'm going to go with ZZ Top -- they're my faves . . . because of the whole thing that they do with the guitars and the old Father Time beards.

I never used to tell jokes on stage. Now I'm cutting up jokes all night long.

There's an audience for all kinds of great art.

Being critical is not something I like to do. I like to appreciate and inspire.

I grew up in a Hollywood family with money, so money is not the reason I make music. I'm as Hollywood as it gets. Not internally but externally - that's my bloodline.

Entertain the people. Give them something they're not ready for, make them talk.

I've been influenced heavily by great soul artists. I see myself as a soul singer. I sing from my soul - I write from my soul.

There is nothing normal about a musician's lifestyle; I don't have a nine-to-five job at the post office.

While other kids played with cars and toys, I listened to music all day. I wanted to sing it and learn it.

Life is full of constant ups and downs, and all I ask for is redemption in the end.

I'm trying to create the world around myself to be a place of as much equality and openheartedness as possible.

My songs don't play on pop radio; they play on black radio.

I hate not giving the people what they want.

I took whatever the devil offered me.

Like with acting, if you're charming or just good-looking, you might be able to get your foot in the door. But a lot of time with music, you actually have to kinda be able to sing.

Some people go to college. For me I studied music my whole life. That was my college.

Women and their bodies are beautiful. Men are always gonna want to follow them around.

You have to give love to get love.
