Producing suits me because I have a business mind and a business sensibility. I was a street hustler. I did whatever it took. I sold whatever I could sell. I'm a good organiser.

You can't have a conscience in the pimp game.

I've always wanted to do right in life. But the wanting and the doing aren't quite the same thing.

As far as I'm concerned, there's no job more important on the planet than being a mom.

Look, if you're driving down the highway at 120 miles an hour, I'd rather be behind the wheel than in the backseat.

For me, family always comes first I would do anything to protect them.

Having two daughters changed my perspective on a lot of things, and I definitely have a newfound respect for women. And I think I finally became a good and real man when I had a daughter.

All that running around in my underwear put money in my pockets. I can focus on working in interesting movies without having to worry about supporting myself.

It's all about love and how we are all connected.

If I can start my day out by saying my prayers and getting myself focused, then I know I'm doing the right thing. That 10 minutes helps me in every way throughout the day.

Well, I would love it if they could take all the guns away. Unfortunately, you can't do that so you hope that good people in the world have them to protect the people who can't protect themselves.

If you have to make a daily choice to be in a relationship then you are married to the past, not the person.

If books are your good friends, then a conscious life will be your best comrade all your life!

I was nauseous and tingly all over. I was either in love or I had smallpox.

Lessons didn't really work out for me, so I went to the old school, listening to records and learning what I wanted to learn.

Calling a tail a leg does not make it a leg.

Piety's hard enough to take among the poor who have to practice it. A rich man's piety stinks. It's insufferable.

I've always been a geek and slightly awkward… slightly umm… I was never the cool kid at school.

Set goals that are achievable. Bring about meaningful change one step at a time. Raising awareness is not enough.

Spontaneous is what you get after the seventeenth draft.

I want to be a cheerleader for women who have never even considered running for office or being involved in a campaign, but who in the quietness of their hearts might think, 'Why not me?'
