More quotes by Ice T
I like crime movies where the crime is so incredible that, attractive as it seems, you don't wanna do it because it's just too dangerous.
Ice T
My father's family came from Virginia and Philadelphia. He wasn't a brother who talked a lot. He was a working man, a quiet, blue-collar dude.
Ice T
I think when people say 'real hip-hop,' they want it more buried in the streets. They want it more connected to the streets and the grime and the roughness of the streets. They don't want the fluff.
Ice T
It's not about being mad at everything. It's about being really mad at the right things.
Ice T
Ultimately I am happy that everybody is embracing hip hop and the sounds from the streets.
Ice T
I'll never sell 14 million like Hammer, I just wanna do a good Ice-T show.
Ice T
I'm pretty open book, I'm also the kind of person that will say, 'That's none of your business,' too.

...As an artist, you need the naysayers and the nonbelievers to add fuel to your creative fire.

One of the things about powerful people is they have the ability to make it look easy.
Ice T
When I recorded my first album, my ego didn't let me believe that what I was gonna say on the mic, anyone would really care about. But then when I found out that they did, I started to take it more seriously.
Ice T
I just don't believe that there's any way that you're ever gonna get one peace, because everybody has different ways of seeing life.
Ice T
It really really sunk into me when I went to Europe and they take rap so much more serious than we do here. That was the first time I ever heard rap considered folk music. And sometimes somebody will make you understand like, Hey, what you doin' is serious, don't play it lightly 'cause it's changin' my life.
Ice T
You have to come in on a professional level to make it, otherwise you just can't get into rap.
Ice T
I was born in Newark, New Jersey, and grew up in Summit, an upscale town in north Jersey. There was this tiny area of Summit where most of the black families lived. My parents and I lived in a duplex house on Williams Street.
Ice T
The music led to the acting. But movies aren't something you can just will yourself into. Someone has to choose you, and you have to be quite fortunate to be chosen.
Ice T
Any New York group can come to L.A. and sell out every show, but an L.A. group who goes to New York might not do the same because the audience hasn't been introduced to the group.
Ice T
I didn't start off with the responsibility because I didn't think anybody would care. But as you do meet these people influenced by your music, then you start to understand you have a responsibility. I don't think you initially know it until you feel the power of what you're really doing.
Ice T
With acting, you have to take it seriously because the other actors are putting in a lot of effort - and if you say, 'I'm just bullshitting here', it's like dissing 'em.
