"I'm not tryin' to come off as the best lyricist."

-- Missy Elliot

“I've built companies, I've created jobs, I know the frustration of small businesses with higher taxes.”
“I want all people to be Indians first, Indian last and nothing else but Indians.”
“All of Europe is tremendously integrated now; perhaps from all those years of colonization. Everybody that they've colonized has come to the mainland, so you'll have a racially diverse audience as well. You'll have many Middle Easterners, Asians, Africans, from seven to ninety sitting in the audience, and the really incredible thing is that they all know the music. I don't mean they just know a song here and there. They know the music. They are a very educated audience.”
“The life of a man consists not in seeing visions and in dreaming dreams, but in active charity and in willing service.”
“To be able to feel the lightest touch really is a gift.”
“Find better company, find company of people better than yourself so you be surrounded with those best in character and so you may learn something.”
“If you must be without one, be without the strategy.”
“The blues echoes right through into soul, R&B and hip hop. It's part of the make-up of modern music. You can't turn your back on the blues.”
