Don't lose who you are in the blur of the stars Seeing is deceiving, dreaming is believing

Never expect, never presume, always work hard and always be true to who you are.

Do what makes you feel good. Remind yourself of what you're good at and make sure you do that.

Do good. Inspire. Set an example to yourself and others. Have faith. Make your actions loud. Have fun. Be nice. Love strong.

Trust Me. Life is not worth living feeling sad and down and lonely. Always be true to who you are.

It's healthy to admit you're not ok. 'It's ok not to be ok' it's brave. But don't let it win. Be sad. Have your moment, your day or week. Then do something about it and be happy. For yourself.

An actor's a guy who if you ain't talking about him ain't listening.

I haven't seen a bear in person. I've seen deer. I have lots of woodchucks on my property. And bluebirds. Foxes.

I've always had mostly women come out to see me perform. That's the reason the guys show up; they know R. Kelly is going to draw the women. Most of the songs I'm singing are catering to women anyway.

Don't worry if they're Democrats or Republicans. Give them service and they'll become Democrats.

Working for the Man seemed really good to me.

The wicked are wicked, no doubt, and they go astray and they fall, and they come by their deserts; but who can tell the mischief which the very virtuous do?
