“I just think a hustler’s ambition is that I never stop. I start off hustling and said I’ll never stop hustling. An ambitious hustler is the one to hustle the hustlers. When I grew up, my heroes were hustlers. Now I’m their hero.”

Anything that looks good makes you feel better.

Open your eyes, I’m a BLESSING in disguise.

I used to hit the kitchen lights, cockroaches everywhere. Hit the kitchen lights, now it’s marble floors everywhere.

All my albums always go with the times.

I don’t just do music for the clubs, I do music for the struggle. I do music for everyday niggas, the kids who ain’t got no sense of direction. I’m trying to restore some of the morals back into the game, as far as the street.

Politics isn’t only about government. Politics is about the people.

If I’m gonna put a message out there, I want to make sure I stay consistent. I’m up on my game, because I said it. People take your words and they live by them.

A lot of people question how talented I am. But I’m a real dude and I know real things and I’ve seen real people get their head blown off.

It’s not the average people that come to my show.

Real recognize real, I suppose.

Let’s say your past is your present and your present is your cash, So I look forward to the future.

To be honest, I think about the clubs when I write. But I should probably start thinking about stadiums, because the songs sound even better there – and bigger.

I could sit right here and have a 15-minute conversation with somebody and change their whole life.

Honestly, I’m on the road so much that I never really get a chance to go to baseball games.

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

As long as I’m not selling out the people that ride or die with me, I’m glad I’m not an MC. I’m a motivational speaker. I’m not that rapper dude.

The biggest changes in a women’s nature are brought by love; in man, by ambition

Dangerous ambition more often lurks behind the specious mask of zeal for the rights of the people than under the forbidden appearance of zeal for the firmness and efficiency of government.

Let us recollect that peace or war will not always be left to our option; that however moderate or unambitious we may be, we cannot count upon the moderation, or hope to extinguish the ambition of others.

A dangerous ambition more often lurks behind the specious mask of zeal for the rights of the people, than under the forbidding appearance of zeal for the firmness and efficiency of Government.

Great ambition is the passion of a great character. Those endowed with it may perform very good or bad acts. All depends on the principles which direct them.

Under ‘Reasons for Leaving Last Job’, never give the real reason, unless it’s money or ambition.

It is easier to make progress on mega-ambitious dreams. Since no one else is crazy enough to do it, you have little competition.

If I fail it is only because I have too much pride and ambition.
