All of my projects are done right because I know the game, and I consider myself a rap expert.

The problem with kids these days is they don’t have enough fun stuff to do. When I was stationed with my family in Germany, youth basketball programs gave me something to strive to do my best at.

I’m going to be on a mission. I’ve handled my personal vendettas and handled them well.

The day I stopped worrying about stats is the day I started winning

Excellence is a habit. You are what you repeatedly do.

Being that I’m a tropical black man I don’t get to see much snow. When I see snow I go crazy. That’s why they call me Sasquatch. There’s no Sasquatch found in the snow so I had to go back to my Sasquatchian roots.

Opinions are like belly buttons; everybody has one. I never knock a man for his opinion.

A lot of times when I buy a lot of toys, I get a little jealous and keep one or two for myself. So I’ve got a couple of drones. I’ve got a couple of remote-control cars. I like to have fun

What a horrible loutish planet this is. the dominant species consists of sadistic morons, faces bearing the hideous lineaments of spiritual famine swollen with stupid hate. Hopeless rubbish.
