More quotes by Ice Cube
I'm not actually from Compton - I'm from South Central Los Angeles, and my father still lives in the same house I grew up in, so I'm there all the time.
Ice Cube
When you go to a movie, you don't care for one Oscar, really. Do you care if a guy got a Oscar on the shelf or is it a good movie? And, you don't care how much the movie made.
Ice Cube
South Central is just who I am.
Ice Cube
Ice Cube is the piece of me that I give away to the public.
Ice Cube
I wanted to go in a different direction, artistically. But having somebody like Terry[Crews] in it was your ace in the hole. That makes it very strong, so I definitely had to jump in with both feet.
Ice Cube
I get freedom out of hip-hop. I get to be a true artist without any shackles or harnesses.
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.

I've got a basketball signed by all the greats from Julius Irving to Oscar Robinson. It was at an All Star game I got them all to sign it. So that ain't going nowhere. I'm going to die with that in my casket.
Ice Cube
I go light on breakfast. Sometimes it's a yogurt, but a lot of times it's leftovers from one of my wife's dinners.
Ice Cube
Most of the problems that we have are brought on by the government and not by music. Music is a mirror of what we're going through, not the cause of what we're going through.
Ice Cube
Can't step from one movie set to the next. Only Samuel L. Jackson can do that. All us mere mortals can't do that!
Ice Cube
Don't talk about death, I've got too much life to live, To many orders to give.
Ice Cube
I'm not trying to turn into Eddie Murphy, and just do kids movies the rest of my career. I'm going to still do a wide variety of movies, as well as do hardcore rap.
Ice Cube
I'm always kind of off to the next movie, and focused on making sure that the one I'm currently working on is as good as the one that's already on TV.
Ice Cube
You become a writer on a television show, and you see yourself doing bigger and better things, you don't wait till they tell you, Here's the way to do bigger and better things, you start writing. You start writing that material that you might be doing off to the side. Nobody's going to be paying you for that, but it could turn into something b

I hear about people getting shot all the time. But most of the guys you hear about getting shot pulled through.
Ice Cube
[Boycott Oscar] is like crying about not having enough icing on your cake. It's just ridiculous.
Ice Cube
I believe our society has fell into a pyramid system where there's people relegated to the bottom of that pyramid and there's people that feel like they're entitled to the top of that pyramid.
