Today marks a sad day in music history. Announced earlier today, Prince was found passed away in his home at the age of 57. We wanted to celebrate the larger than life artist with 41 of our favorite Prince GIFs and his best quotes. To the man who brought us Purple Rain, pushed stage performance to another level, engaged and opened our eyes to gender-bending and societal roles, a man who lived by his own set of rules and seemed to have a hell of a lot of fun while doing it: Prince, you will be sorely missed.
“Cool means being able to hang with yourself. All you have to ask yourself is ‘Is there anybody I`m afraid of? Is there anybody who if I walked into a room and saw, I`d get nervous?’ If not, then you`re cool.” Prince
“A strong spirit transcends rules” Prince
“Real music lovers are actually my favourite kind of people because they like to know, rather than just be told what to think.” Prince
“If you see a man opening a car door for a woman, it means one of two things: it’s either a new woman or a new car!” Prince
“I just want your extra time and your………. Kiss.” Prince
“Despite everything, no one can dictate who you are to other people.” Prince
“It’s a hurtful place, the world, in and of itself. We don’t need to add to it. And we’re in a place now where we all need one another, and it’s going to get rougher.” Prince
“You can judge the success of a man by his bodyguards!” Prince
“I have written a song that says: If you ever lose someone dear to you, never say the words, “They’re gone,” and they’ll come back.” Prince
