<h1>Prince Rogers Nelson</h1>
<p>Prince was known by my names, such as The Purple One, His Royal Badness, Skipper, The High Priest of Pop, The Prince of Funk,
and The Artist Formerly Known as Prince. But for most of us he was just Prince.</p>

<h3 class='clear'>Some Quotes From Prince</h3>
<ul>
<li><q>You can always renegotiate a record contract. You just go in and say, 'You know, I think my next project will be a country-and-western album.</q></li>
<li><q>People say I'm wearing heels because I'm short. I wear heels because the women like 'em.</q></li>
<li><q>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.</q></li>
<li><q>I never really got off on awards so much. I think it's more for the people who give them and also for the fans. I get a lot of props from people in the street and a lot of love and congratulation, pats on back, so it's a good feeling you know the after-effects.</q></li>
<li><q>I've got more hits than Madonna's got kids.</q></li>
<li><q>I don't see why I should give my new music to iTunes or anyone else. They will not give me an advance for it and they get mad when they don't get it. All computers and digital gadgets are no good. They just fill your head with numbers and they are not good for you.</q></li>
