I don't want to be 60 years old standing on stage telling some jokes. I want my life to mean something.

Don't hate the player; change the game

I've always been this way. My father taught this to me. Here's the thing, you have to understand; the thing about having money: Money and fame don't change you, all it does is allow you to be more of who you are anyway.

You are never too old to reinvent yourself.

If you ain't nothing when you get money and fame, you're just going to be more nothing. If you don't stand for nothing, when you get money and fame, you ain't suddenly fin to stand for nothing! You're just fin to be richer and more famous - standing for nothing!

Your reality is yours. Stop wasting time looking at someone else's reality while doing nothing about yours.

Failure means you've now learned another valuable lesson that pushes you one step closer to success.
