There's a lot of disorder that comes along with wanting to know everything and wanting to try everything and wanting to experience everything, but there's a lot of knowledge that comes out of it too.

A true soul mate is a mirror, the person who shows you everything that is holding you back, the person who brings you to your own attention so you can change your life.

I've never seen any life transformation that didn't begin with the person in question finally getting tired of their own bullshit.

Tis' better to live your own life imperfectly than to imitate someone else's perfectly.

Stop wearing your wishbone where your backbone ought to be.

I'm choosing happiness over suffering, I know I am. I'm making space for the unknown future to fill up my life with yet-to-come surprises.

This is a good sign, having a broken heart. It means we have tried for something.

There's always another level up. There's always another ascension. More grace, more light, more generosity, more compassion, more to shed, more to grow.

Never forget that once upon a time, in an unguarded moment, you recognized yourself as a friend.

If you're going to answer the call and you're going to transform and you're going to change, get ready. It is not a day at the beach.

In rap music, even though the element of poetry is very strong, so is the element of the drum, the implication of the dance. Without the beat, its commercial value would certainly be more tenuous.

I think it's important to update my fans on what I'm doing and where I'm going next and when my next single is going to drop and my album.

Change isn't easy, it takes time.

My references, my musical tastes, everything that I like, in fact, comes from the '70s.

I grew up around lots of men - my father, my brothers, my uncles - so I wasn't intimidated by them.

An easy, non-self-denying life will never be one of power.

It's hard to be disappointed when what you expected turns out to be true.

A conductor should guide rather than command.

I can't stop thinking like this.

There are three classes of human beings: men, women and women physicians.
