Shawn Carter is nice, but Sean Price is the best.

Gangsta rappers can't fight, so they rap about guns.

Dutch in my ear, Olde E in my palm, I Freddy Krueger your face, Michael Myers your moms. You botherin mine? That's when I'm sparkin the nine.

I don't like thugs, I don't like nerds, I don't like myself and I hate bein' disturbed.

Wake up: all of that 'crack in the street' talk? It's made up, like 'Jack and the Beanstalk.'

I'm a grumpy old man. The older I get the more anti-social I get.

The hip-hop that we grew up on is dead to a certain degree. I'm trying to keep it alive though, it's alive in the underground, but don't nobody know about it.

I can't see myself not rappin' and not talking the bullshit I'm talking. I love that! I can't lie. Once I stop I'm just going to stop all the way.

Everyone's always like, "Why don't you guys wear white ties?" You know why we don't? It's because they're in the wash.

The Mother of Ignorance is always pregnant. But at Sean Price house, the b**ch have twins!

"You listen to Portishead, you're not like the others. Want some coke?" I'm like, "Nah, man."

When silence greets you, listen for those powerful words lost within the void of reason...

The world may take your reputation from you but it cannot take your character.

Every great masterpiece is a purification of the world.

Because their bones are growing, they can only sleep in certain positions, obviously. The crucifix and the swastika tend to be the most popular. Sometimes a combination of the two.

Of course, plenty of people don't think that guaranteeing affordable health insurance is a core responsibility of government.

To make something look real and alive, nothing can be symmetrical because nothing in real life is symmetrical. You have to make it look organic.

I always have someone to look up to, and I think it helps me with motivating myself.

I did not count the days or the weeks or the months. Time is an illusion that only makes us pant. I survived because I forgot even the very notion of time.

Successful people use their strength by recognizing, developing, and utilizing the talents of others.
