On music.
One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.
On wisdom.
Don't gain the world and lose your soul; wisdom is better than silver or gold.
On life.
Life is one big road with lots of signs. So when you riding through the ruts, don't complicate your mind. Flee from hate, mischief and jealousy. Don't bury your thoughts, put your vision to reality. Wake Up and Live!
On truth.
Truth is everybody is going to hurt you: you just gotta find the ones worth suffering for.
On living.
Open your eyes, look within. Are you satisfied with the life you're living?
On being free.
None but ourselves can free our minds.
On destiny.
Every man gotta right to decide his own destiny.
When one way is blocked.
When one door is closed, don't you know, another is open.
On alcohol.
Herb is the healing of a nation, alcohol is the destruction.
On money.
Money can't buy life.
On truth.
Tell the children the truth.
On hungry people.
You entertain people who are satisfied. Hungry people can't be entertained - or people who are afraid. You can't entertain a man who has no food.
