I always aimed at being a legend.
People always say I'm a legend, but I'm not. Not until I've defended my Olympic titles. That's when I've decided I'll be a legend.
I'm thankful that I have lived long enough to become a legend, and I hope I deserve it.

Being called a 'music legend' is a very funny thing. It's nice to know that my work has been appreciated and that people have given me that status. On a personal level, however, I can't think about it too much. It means a lot... but then it doesn't.
To be a legend, you've either got to be dead or excessively old!
John legend is a nickname that somebody started calling me a while ago and part of it is 'cos I sound like an old man when I sing.
A lot of legends, a lot of people, have come before me. But this is my time.
I've never considered myself as a legend - just a simple man with heart.
If you want to be remembered as great, if you want to be a legend, you have to go out there every single day and do stuff.
