“I never want to grow up.”

I want to take Justin Bieber for a month and just lock him up in a cage where we sit and make music. He’s one of the most successful people in the world, but his music could be so much tighter.

I want to do films and have my name mentioned next to Wes Anderson and Quentin Tarantino. I don’t want my name mentioned next to other rappers at all.

I think I’m cool. That’s all that matters.

For the record, I don’t worship the devil. I just hate religion.

I never had a drink in my life. I don’t smoke or anything.

Somebody called me a homophobe. I’m not homophobic.

I don’t like being put in a box. I just make music, you know?

I’m an optimistic guy. I’m one of those big dreamers. I’m one of those kids with that annoying imagination.

I’m like a big 10-year-old when I’m on stage. I just go up there and do whatever I think is cool at the moment.

I wasn’t shy, but I was really hyper. Nobody got my sense of humor. I was a black skater kid.

I really want to sing, but my tone of voice is really too deep to do what I want.

I don’t really listen to rap; I just like to rap.

Humans have voids, and you need things to fill voids, I didn’t have a dad to fill that male model void, so when I heard Eminem or freaking seen Dave Chapelle, that’s what I gravitated to.

I just live life. I grew up in a Christian family, but, you know, the way Mom brought me up is to, you know, do you, to always be yourself.

I’m not into fashion, but I like design. I wear the same shoes every day.

I don’t have a therapist, so I use me as my own therapist when I’m making the music.

No matter the age, a woman who is unloved is lost – unloved she might as well die.

Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears.

We live in an age when unnecessary things are our only necessities.

Every man is a creature of the age in which he lives and few are able to raise themselves above the ideas of the time.

I must admit, I was born at an early age.

Age gives you an excuse for not being very good at things that you were not very good at when you were young.

Perseverance and spirit have done wonders in all ages.

To explain all nature is too difficult a task for any one man or even for any one age.
