“Always follow your own path.”

I feel like every woman is a queen, and we should be treated as such, and we should, you know, sort of request that sort of treatment from others.

You can’t let fear paralyze you. The worse that can happen is you fail, but guess what: You get up and try again. Feel that pain, get over it, get up, dust yourself off and keep it moving.

You do silly things for love sometimes and not-so-smart things for love.

There is nothing like a person with confidence, male or female, not conceitedness, but confidence. That inspires other people.

I am a strong woman with or without this other person, with or without this job, and with or without these tight pants.

Living for today will bring about dying for today. You can’t just think, ‘I’m going to die anyway,’ because that’s what’s stopping us from moving forward.

For me, it might sound cliche, but beauty for me really does start on the inside. It’s like a state of mind, a state of love if you will. Then, whatever you can do on the outside is all like a bonus.

Life’s not about sitting at home in front of the TV waiting for your life to begin. Get out there and take some chances.

Don’t you want to know what’s real and what’s not? I remember when I was a kid, you know, this whole Cold War thing. They had us scared of the Russians. So, it’s almost like, what’s real and what’s not?

I like Pirate’s Booty. Prunes and olives, too. I love hummus. I can eat that until I die. I tend to eat mostly organic food.

Business is fun. Controlling your own destiny is fun. Creating an idea and turning it into a movie; finding an artist and guiding their career and bringing them to some type of status – there’s joy in that.

I really don’t know how to be anyone else, and whenever I try to be anyone else, I fail miserably. Or I disappoint myself. It doesn’t build my self-esteem, and it doesn’t help me grow me at all.

When you’re rapping, you do have to perform to a certain degree, but not every rapper is necessarily a gifted actor.

If there are kids who want to follow in my footsteps, I’d say that my shoes are too big for them to fill! But their shoe size is just perfect.

Even if you don’t have anything, even if you’ve got a quarter in your pocket, to share with someone else who has nothing really helps.

I’ve never wanted to be put into a box, not musically.

Everywhere you go, my love will follow.

All I can do is follow my instincts, because I’ll never please everyone.

Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

The act of evil breeds others to follow, young sins in its own likeness.

The act of evil breeds others to follow, young sins in its own likeness.

You know why there’s a Second Amendment? In case the government fails to follow the first one.

All rulers in all ages have tried to impose a false view of the world upon their followers.

I am not apt to follow blindly the lead of other men.
