You don't have to spend $200 million or $100 million to make a great movie.
Ice Cube
You always want your kids to step up at the moment of truth.
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
I love Godzilla, but my favorite was on this TV Show, Johnny Sokko and His Flying Robot. I used to love the idea of having a giant robot under my control. That was like a dream come true for a kid.
Ice Cube
Gangsta to us didn't have anything to do with Al Capone and stuff like that. It's just about living your life the way you want to live it. And you're not going to let nothing stop you.
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
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
It never gets old. Working with somebody like Kevin Hart is rejuvenating in a lot of ways. He's such a pro. He's so good.
Ice Cube
Are We There Yet? was the perfect title, because it's such a common saying. And having made the movie with the same name kinda locks it all in.
Ice Cube
You ask me, Did I like Arsenio? About as much as the Bicentennial.
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.
Ice Cube
I hear about people getting shot all the time. But most of the guys you hear about getting shot pulled through.
Ice Cube
For me rappers and dancers are poets and artists and often times the most interesting performances are given by them.
Ice Cube
There's never really been a real hood Christmas movie.
Ice Cube
Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall with a joint, drinking some eight-ball.
Ice Cube
I can't really attribute my success onscreen to any formula and suggest you do this or that to make it as an actor.
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
[Boycott Oscar] is like crying about not having enough icing on your cake. It's just ridiculous.
Ice Cube
Sports without music is just a game. Music makes it entertaining.
Ice Cube
Everybody that wants to be successful should always be careful of what you wish for. A lot of artists and entertainers want to put the genie back in the bottle and wish they could go back to being what they were.
