Life has meaning only in the struggle. Triumph or defeat is in the hands of the Gods. So let us celebrate the struggle!

My mother gave me an understanding that as good as you think you are, you're not so great. There's always room for improvement. The reality is when people don't have someone to give them a sense of guidance, and say, "Hey, man, that's not happening," it's really hard.

Many years ago, but not so long ago, there were those who said, 'Well, you have three strikes against you: You're black, you're blind and you're poor,' But God said to me, 'I will make you rich in the spirit of inspiration, to inspire others as well as create music to encourage the world to a place of oneness and hope, and positivity.' I believed Him and not them.

Use your heart to love somebody. And If your heart is big enough, use your heart to love EVERYBODY

For the most part, I feel really comfortable with what I've given to the people. I want to give it to them again.

I always wanted my mother to be Queen for a Day. I always used to watch that show that came on television.

Trying your best to bring the water to your eyes, thinking it might stop her from woopin' your behind.
