A lot of times people have issues with me because they don't understand where I'm coming from and haven't seen the years and years of hard work and shows I've played.

Sometimes the only way to fix a mistake- is to make it twice.

With rap music, there are billions and billions of samples that are uncleared that people have never been bothered about on an underground level.

KRS-One is one of my favorite rappers ever. I actually don't even know why I have this on my computer, but I do. I really like this album, Criminal Minded.

The traditional DJ world isn't a world that I come from.

I want to make new and interesting music out of pop music in a way that isn't ironic. I want to stay sincere to the source material but at the same time manipulate it and take it to a new world.

The point has always been to make music, it's not like I've always been running a giant money making scheme.

The music is in no way politically based - I'm not trying to make a point about sampling. It may bring up issues but I'm not trying to push it on anyone.

I still like weird music but there's such an overabundance that it's hard for me to stay enthusiastic about it.

I'm just making fun music so you can let your guard down and enjoy it, don't worry about what's cool and what's not.

I think some people form the traditional DJ worlds misunderstand where I'm coming form.

Wisdom does not make me full. It fills me with hunger.

The way to embody love completely is to see and appreciate life just as it is, and not as you believe, fear, or desire it to be.

When a loved one is sick, the days are long, but the years are short.

When I go to the Boston Marathon now, I have wet shoulders—women fall into my arms crying. They're weeping for joy because running has changed their lives. They feel they can do anything.

The Holy Koran teaches that whoever kills an innocent is as - it is as if he has killed all mankind.

The guy stroked his goatee. "What do you call twenty guys watching the world series?" "The New York Yankees," Butch replied.

If you want to make friends, go out of your way to do things for other people--things that require time, energy, unselfishness, and thoughtfulness.

A brand is simply trust.

Hold onto your dreams 'cause they're always worth havin'. Hold on to your dreams til the day your life is said and done.

A midnight knock on the door followed by execution is no way a leader should be treated.
