Be mindful of everything going on around you and always be on point but don't be so on point that you lose that ability to be what it was that got you out there.

Be true to yourself and as long as you can look back and be happy with what you've done stay that way.

I'm just the type of person that realizes that someone is always going to have something to say so I could care less about it.

Things happen and you live and you learn.

There are other jobs I do besides rap. I was considering going back to school so there have been a few things on my plate that I thought about doing during my time off.

I'm at a point where I let my mind go with flow of the music I'm making and it's not interrupted by me trying to please everybody.

Rap is purging itself from the things it didn't need and it's allowing the younger dudes to come up. With that being said you're always going to need people from that golden era.

You're always going to need those folks that introduce certain things to the next generation and I fit in that sense.

Death is as unexpected in his caprice as a courtesan in her disdain

A woman should be like water, able to flow over and around anything.

Let us heed the voice of the people and recognize their common sense. If we do not, we not only blaspheme our political heritage, we ignore the common ties that bind all Americans.

If you're just like someone else, we don't need you.

One lot apiece, one chance to undo an error or secure a fate.

You are your child's keeper until she's mature enough to keep herself.

Gifts are like fish-hooks; for who is not aware that the greedy char is deceived by the fly which he swallows?

Hard work ain't so easy, strength training is just plain old hard work and it ain't easy.

Works for me. For the ones we love, today we’re allies. Tomorrow we resume our natural order of mortal enemies. Gentlemen, and I use that term loosely for all of us, have we an accord? (Acheron)

Tread softly, for you tread on my dreams
