I'm really quite bipolar, and the depressed times, when everything felt like night, sometimes you get to such a low point that you physically beat at it until it bleeds - as you would say - bleeds till sunshine. You get to a point where you say, 'I will not take it anymore! I'm gonna do something drastic if I stay this depressed. I've got to break out of there!'

I don't hate nobody. I hate certain conditions that are inflicted upon the people - and they're helpless with it.

I give a damn if any fan recalls my legacy, I'm trying to live life in the sight of GOD's memory.

We can be beautiful and feel beautiful about who we are everyday.

Good art provides people with a vocabulary about things they can't articulate.
