“Everyday, all day I have to be productive. And when I ain’t productive, I get concerned.”

I never wanted to be a statistic. I never wanted to be that cat who tried and never made it.

Anybody that I ever dealt with knows that I’m a very focused individual, and when it comes to my work and what I do, you might have to play the back burner to that.

You seen my shows; I bring the ‘hood out.

A lot of things come with fame, whether it’s losing friends or losing family.

My fans are my family, because they understand me and I understand them.

Think you figured it out, but you don’t have a clue. Think you on top of the world, but the world on top of you.

People who work every day are kind of scared of things they don’t understand.

You’ve got to be happy with yourself. You can’t sell yourself if you’re out here and you ain’t good. Because you’re giving people messages, and if your message is wrong, then it’s like the blind leading the blind.

You gotta have life your way. If you ain’t losing your mind, you ain’t partying right.

The world is yours and everything in it, it’s out there- get on your grind and get it.

My hustle is nonstop. I never stop hustling.

I don’t know how to be a rapper. I just know how to be me.

All my music is inspirational. You just gotta listen to the words and get what you can get out of it.

I don’t think nobody should compare me to anyone, ’cause, at the end of the day, you’ve got a ‘Pac, you’ve got Snoop, you got Tip, you got Wayne – there’s only one Jeezy, man. Ain’t nobody walked in these shoes but me.

I represent the Democratic party… I’ve never been nor do I ever plan to be a John McCain supporter. I support Barack Obama.

A lot of things come with fame, whether it’s losing friends or losing family. You still gotta stand up and be that guy even when you ain’t having great things. Because you’ve gotta be the spokesperson for your people.

We get so much information during the day that doesn’t really tell us anything.

Nature made the day for exercise, work and seeing to one’s business; and … it provides us with a candle, which is to say the bright and joyous light of the sun.

From the early days of the telegraph, to be a telegrapher was a job, and there weren’t many of those folks.

In his fierce, bold determination to see the lives of modern-day slaves up close, Benjamin Skinner reminds me of the British abolitionist of two hundred years ago

Half of today is better than all of tomorrow.

Every day, do something selfless for someone else that takes under five minutes.

There is one day that is ours. Thanksgiving Day is the one day that is purely American.

You eat and sleep it all day long and play on the streets until mom calls you in.
