That's one of the first things that comes out of young people's mouths when they're in love. FOREVER. And that's cool, it's all good-until you get old enough to realize what forever is.

When the President (of the United States) mentions your name in anger, you know the sh*t has hit the fan!

I look at my career and I feel I have the potential to maybe mature into a Samuel Jackson-type older cat, and people will still respect me and say 'Yo, Ice-T was wild', into my old age. And why not? I don't necessarily think I'll be rapping in 10 years.

I've been pulled out of my nice new car and laid out in the street by the police, interrogated and then have them get in the car and roll off leaving me lying in the street without even saying 'Get up.' The humiliation that they can put on a black man because they determine that you ain't got the money.

Anybody who speeds thinks they can outsmart the cops.

I don't rhyme for the sake of riddlin'. If I say it, I gotta be able to back it up.

I've never been competitive with anybody but myself.
