“The first time I do something, I’ll probably be good at it.”

I got a lot of names for my next project, ‘Vonald Trump.’ Nah, I ain’t gonna do that, but that sounds good.

With ‘Crazy Story,’ I thought it from the back to the front. I thought about the ending first, then what’s going to happen.

I don’t go in and just get to rapping off the dome. I think about it. I really think about it, especially when I make the story.

Rolling Loud, I wanna do that. I went to Rolling Loud one time with Durk, I couldn’t even get in. We ain’t have enough passes. I wasn’t even rappin’.

In jail, you just zone out, so that’s the thing. That’s like a cheat code.

I love cars and I love clothes, but I don’t really be going too crazy.

We’re the leaders. Look around. Everything we do, we’re gonna see everyone else try to do it.

They always compare my ‘Crazy Story’ to Meek’s ‘Tony Story.’

The plan wasn’t to rap. So, I got out for a year. I got back in the streets, back out here. Then, it wasn’t workin’, like, I kept going broke. I kept finding myself back at zero. I kept finding myself in trouble, so I told Durk, ‘I’m ready to rap now. I’m ready.’

Ain’t no point in stopping or slowing down. Ain’t like no ‘A’ight, I’m done with this, now take a break,’ you just keep going.

I ain’t really got problems with people.

I used to play baseball. I was playing even in high school.

Naw, I ain’t never been out the country. I been a felon for a minute, so there’s all types of restrictions on my movement, where I can go.

In Chicago, you know you got beef with everybody. In Atlanta, you’re chilling, but you don’t get too comfortable. Like, if I go to the store, it’s not like anybody’s gonna come out shooting at me.

I be talking to females but nothing serious, just entertaining everybody.

If you’re doing something and keep doing it, you’re gonna get better results.

From men motivated by moral certitude, history teaches, no lasting good ever comes.

You will find Goodness and Truth everywhere you go. If you have to choose, choose Truth. For that is closest to Earth. Keep close to the Earth, in that lies strength. Simplicity of heart is just as necessary for an architect as for a farmer or a minister if the architect is going to build great buildings.

What good would it be to possess the whole universe if one were its only survivor?

I know he’s a good general, but is he lucky?

He who is too busy doing good finds no time to be good.

A word in earnest is as good as a speech.

Music is the only religion that delivers the goods.

When you have a good mother and no father, God kind of sits in. It’s not enough, but it helps.
