My Twitter reflects what's going on with me in my life.

When I was married, I definitely went through a lying period.

Life is too short to worry about what others say about you. Have fun and give them something to talk about.

You definitely want your kids to understand their heritage, but I don't want my kids to just focus on being black. They are people. I don't want them to judge other people or to be judged. I want them to be good people, so good people will treat them accordingly. I preach that to my kids and everything else falls into place.

I've pushed several women in front of violent situations. My rule is save myself first.

'Soul Plane' put me in a position to succeed. I'm glad I had the opportunity to be the lead man.

We don't always possess faith in the sense of having a clear embodiment of something to hang on to. The relationship between the intellect and faith is a very curious one. Sometimes the intellect can point us to faith, sometimes the intellect can stand in the way of faith. Sometimes, as St John of the Cross points out, we have to darken or blind the intellect in order to have faith.
