“There’s nothing wrong with starting off in a box, but you got to have a plan to come out that box.”

You can do anything in the world if you say “Hey man, don’t blame me, the devil made me do it. It’s an easy way to escape responsibility.”

Our records, if you have a dark sense of humor, were funny, but our records weren’t about comedy. They were about protests, fantasy, confrontation and all that.

You never get tired of seeing yourself on TV. It’s always extra cool… always a treat.

I was ready to get out of the box and play something a little different than what everybody has seen.

When I was six, God was a white man with a big beard riding on a white cloud. That’s the image television pumps.

Any time there’s racism somewhere in sports, we should get it out of there because sports is a place where everything’s supposed to be fair.

I think, to me, reality is better than being fake.

I never was in the Nation of Islam… I mean, what I call myself is a natural Muslim, ’cause it’s just me and God.

You want the industry to finally admit that you’re good. But I’m still good without their admission.

I always was like, “Yo, I’m here, I might as well get what I could take.”

There’s a lot of potential that goes unused in places like South Central L.A., a lot of brilliant, smart people who just don’t have that chance to show it.

Don’t talk about death, I’ve got too much life to live, To many orders to give.

The silver and black may have another home, but the Raiders will always belong to the people of Los Angeles.

Don’t worry about being a star, worry about doing good work, and all that will come to you.

I think reading is important in any form. I think a person who’s trying to learn to like reading should start off reading about a topic they are interested in, or a person they are interested in.

Doing it your own way, not having to go exactly by the book to be successful.

Our only limitation is that we only believe what is visible to our eyes and audible to our ears.

The universe never allows you to be comfortable when you are limiting yourself.

Never accept other’s people limits as your own.

A good friend has no limitations on you.

Keep the energy-burning, there’s no limit to what you can achieve.

There is no limit to how radiant, alive, and irresistible you can be.⁠

Find the goodness in every situation of your life & be ready to experience the future without limitations.

The limit is the sky, and I live on cloud.
