People say I've got a bad reputation. I think I've got the best reputation in the building.

Black people can be the most conservative, the most discriminating. Especially among ourselves. It wasn't white people who said all black men have to wear baggy jeans.

I think I do myself a disservice by comparing myself to Steve Jobs and Walt Disney and human beings that we've seen before. It should be more like Willy Wonka... and welcome to my chocolate factory.

Thank God I'm not too cool for a seatbelt.

I thank Marc Jacobs so much for giving me the opportunity to design a shoe for Louis Vuitton, but the thing that broke my heart most was when they said, 'You're finished. The shoe's finished.'

People want fame and I would never tell a person to not want that, because it's f--ing awesome. Actually.

If you ask me a question like what is your greatest accomplishment, it should be what I’m about to do
