More quotes by Ice Cube
America eats its youth like reptiles...Educat e yourself before they dumb you down.
Ice Cube
A good movie is a movie that you could see over and over again, not a movie that wins a Oscar, or a movie that makes a lot of money. It's a movie that you personally can watch over and over again. That, to me, is a measure of a good movie.
Ice Cube
It's easier for me to get comedies made because of my track record. Everybody needs to find their niche. I love dramas, but I understand that I am still just a young man in moviemaking. I know there will be some time to get back to that.
Ice Cube
Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall with a joint, drinking some eight-ball.

When you have a good movie, it's hard to categorize it. It's everything. It makes you laugh, makes you cry and makes you think.
Ice Cube
You can't boycott something you never went to anyway,so why put energy into it?

I still enjoy doing music. I'm not going to stop doing it, and doing it the way that I feel it should be done.
Ice Cube
Comedies in Hollywood is usually the path of least resistance when it comes to being black in Hollywood and putting movies together. They would rather make us laugh than cry, in some respect.
Ice Cube
You always want your kids to step up at the moment of truth.
Ice Cube
While I had done the movies through Revolution Studios, we own the sitcom. It was a situation where, once the team was assembled, I knew we could create something really, really good.
Ice Cube
For my birthday, buy me a politician!
Ice Cube
I remember wishing there was snow in L.A. And how jealous we used to get of those Christmas specials with kids playing in the snow.
Ice Cube
I’m a B-boy at heart. I still like rhyming. It’s just the radio game is like Chinese arithmetic. It’s hard to know what nuts to crack. But I still love music, been dropping music. Never stopped really.
Ice Cube
The thing is with hip-hop, it has its waves and the waves crash against the beach and the new waves come in. So to stay relevant you have to roll with that.
Ice Cube
Get a grip, Oreo, and be true to the game.
Ice Cube
If the day did not require an AK then it was good
Ice Cube
We should love the fact that we're not just getting one point of view. That we have this diversity in entertainment, and people are not scared to be themselves, and people are not scared to make people uncomfortable, and that's all part of it. That's all part of being free.
Ice Cube
You ask me, Did I like Arsenio? About as much as the Bicentennial.
