More quotes by Chuck D

Chuck D
I'm not a firm believer of mo' money mo' problems - I think that's stupid. I think it's that problems are already there that can be exacerbated by more things you don't understand.

Comin' from the school of hard knocks, Some perpetrate...they drink Clorox. Attack the black, cause I know they lack exact The cold facts, and still they try to Xerox.
Chuck D
Where else can you go with respect to the work, lyrics, and message of the music? If you are past high school age, you can get by with saying very little the first or second time around. However, after a while you know you are going to have to say something beyond high school stuff.
Chuck D
I think governments are the cancer of civilization.
Chuck D
I think traveling the world has helped to keep Public Enemy alive. We've never solely depended on the United States.
Chuck D
As black people we were out to further our equality. I don't pay attention to the controversial connotations put on by media and the undermining labels they place on us. We pay attention to what our community situation is and what we need.
Chuck D
DJ culture always made us aware that the best records were going to come from the small shops
Chuck D
The best American is one who considers themselves as a citizen of the world.

I have to be conscious of what I'm sayin' because people are gonna come at me about this sh*t.
Chuck D
We don't see the people who are doing real things getting enough props. We often see politicians who are everywhere but nowhere at the same goddamn time. You know the kind of person: You see them everywhere on television but nowhere in front of your face.
