Life is not in the book, as the Pharisees supposed, but only in the Man of the book .”
“I'm not all dolled up. We tried to keep it as real as we could. We're telling you something that happened. It's a part of history. I hope this movie [ 'Surviving Compton'] gives you a little bit of me and of my music and my heart.”
