“I spent a lot of time drawing and writing little comic books, and my mom was a rapper, so I would steal her instrumentals.”

I just want to be like a good example to somebody in the future.

I felt like my mixtapes were me flirting with my fans.

I feel like, when people realize that they are the only person they need to impress, everybody’s life will be a lot smoother.

A lot of people’s favorite rappers will literally get in the booth and just make sounds.

Lil thunder cat throws it back he can’t handle that.

We gon’ be a household name!

Yeah, I’m in my bag but I’m in his too. That’s why every time you see me I got some new shoes.

Before I do anything, I practice it for a while, and then when I know it’s the bomb, then I’m gonna present it to everybody.

He says he feel intimidated when he talks to me. Got that hardcore but he wants that R&B.

Being an XXL Freshman means that I actually grinded a lot to get here.

Guess I’m too hot so these bitches ain’t cool with me.

Put out the good and keep the bad – don’t believe all you read in the Bible.

Never lend books, for no one ever returns them; the only books I have in my library are books that other folks have lent me.

One sheds ones sickness in books- repeats and presents again ones emotions, to be master of them.

There is no beginning, no middle, no end, no suspense, no moral, no causes, no effects. What we love in our books are the depths of many marvelous moments seen all at one time.

Many a book is like a key to unknown chambers within the castle of one’s own self.

If emotional pain or problems have cropped up in your life, you must insist on getting closure. Closure means you don’t carry the problem or the pain. You address the issue, then you slam shut the book and put it away.

It hurts that I was just one page in the book of your life. But what hurts more is knowing you’ll revise that chapter someday, and you’ll erase me completely.

I am being frank about myself in this book. I tell of my first mistake on page 850.
