More quotes by Eminem
I come from Detroit where it's rough and I'm not a smooth talker.
Eminem
Saving Private Ryan was probably the illest, sickest movie I've ever watched, and I didn't see anybody criticizing that one for violence.
Eminem
The kids are old enough now - I just want to let them be kids. I don't want to comment on them too much. They're at an age where I just want to let them be kids.
Eminem
Just be yourself man, be proud of who you are.
Eminem
But music is reflection of self, we just explain it, and then we get our checks in the mail.
Eminem
I am whatever you say I am if I wasn't, then why would you say I am.
Eminem
The album requires a certain focus of mine that I can't really explain - let's just say it's all I can really do while I'm doing it.
Eminem
I am who I am and I say what I think. I'm not putting a face on for the record.
Eminem
Sometimes you just gotta let sh-t go and say 'to hell with it' and move on.

Eminem
But no matter how many fish in the sea, itd be so empty without me.
Eminem
Yeah, I did see where the people dissing me were coming from. But, it's like, anything that happened in the past between black and white, I can't really speak on it, because I wasn't there. I don't feel like me being born the color I am makes me any less of a person.
Eminem
Anybody with a sense of humor is going to put on my album and laugh from beginning to end.
Eminem
Slim Shady, Eminem was the old initials.
Eminem
Love, when spelled backwards and read phonetically, reads evil
Eminem
I want to keep making records as long as I can, but I don't know how long you can be taken seriously in rap.
Eminem
I've been running a lot, taking care of myself.
Eminem
You can be a permanent fixture in my lyrical mixture.
Eminem
Say there's a white kid who lives in a nice home, goes to an all-white school, and is pretty much having everything handed to him on a platter - for him to pick up a rap tape is incredible to me, because what that's saying is that he's living a fantasy life of rebellion.
