More quotes by 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
Keep everybody out your business, that's how you do it. And I mean everybody. It ain't about having a relationship outside of the house. It's about having a relationship within each other. When something go down don't be calling your sister or your mother I'm not gonna be calling my brother or uncles. We're gonna work it out.
Ice Cube
If you really look at my lyrics, nobody's exempt. Nobody's exempt from observation, criticism or what I think is correction.
Ice Cube
Nobody I know got killed in South Central LA. Today was a good day.

I've always gotten good grades, you know, with my teachers and my English teachers, 'cause I was able to - they'd say, What did you do for the summer? I'm able to explain it to them in a written form. And my teachers always patted me on the back for that, being able to take what's in my mind and put it on paper.

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
Sometimes when you're relegated to your neighborhood, you forget that there's more important things than your neighborhood going on out in the world. And that just gave me a chance to see how life could be. And it gave me a chance to interact with everybody, not just black people or Mexicans. It made me just a little more worldly.
Ice Cube
Nowadays, you can be yourself. You don't have to put on façade. You can be who you are and still be just as successful as the ones who put on the fake façade. You know, it's like reality is just as important as fiction.
Ice Cube
Run DMC brought us out of that underground-only feel. They brought rap above ground and made it respectable as an art form to mainstream music.
Ice Cube
You know it ain't no stoppin' All the doggs I'm droppin' It's Friday night, so everything is poppin.
Ice Cube
Sometimes when you're relegated to your neighborhood, you forget that there's more important things than your neighborhood going on out in the world.
Ice Cube
Brothers keep asking Ice Cube, 'Yo, when will you bust?' They surround me and make a big fuss
Ice Cube
I wake up at 5:30, 6 in the morning, but don't head into the office right away. I like to hang out with my wife, talk about things, get some coffee, you know.
Ice Cube
Truth is the ultimate power. When the truth comes around, all the lies have to run and hide.
Ice Cube
South Central is just who I am.
Ice Cube
Once you figure out what your own thing is it's all about trying to develop shows, programs that can, I guess, enhance what you already have and what you can add to Hollywood.
Ice Cube
I think my fans respect me for bein' as truthful and honest as you can be and still be Rap music and not be opinion music. It's still Rap, its still style, flavor, flair, and people just kind of like how I present myself and the things that I do.
Ice Cube
Success really comes down to the product, not to me, my personality, or what club I'm seen going into or coming out of. None of that matters. What's important is whether or not people feel like they wasted their time or money when they pay for a movie or a CD.
Ice Cube
Don't want to hear my favorite rapper doin' a love song. If I want to hear something soft, I'll throw on Luther Vandross.
Ice Cube
I don't think people should try to force their will on their family.
Ice Cube
