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.

More quotes by Ice T
There is no such thing as a normal family so don't trip off it, just deal with it.
Ice T
I always knew that I had to direct. That was something I'd wanted to do. Finally, I was just looking at the situation and I said, I wanna document hip-hop, as an art form, seeing how a lot of people don't take it seriously.
Ice T
A lot of people play single to work some angle. I'm always about keeping it real. If that's how I'm living, that's how I'm living.
Ice T
If one person comes in and says, this is the way life should be, I think you're asking for chaos. I think you gotta let different people live different ways. It's a big world.
Ice T
I mean rappin' to me is easy, it's something you can do over a week.
Ice T
Los Angeles is a microcosm of the United States. If L.A. falls, the country falls.
Ice T
So from an actor's perspective, you really have no idea how you're acting.
Ice T
Redemption just means you just make a change in your life and you try to do right, versus what you were doing, which was wrong.
Ice T
The right to bear arms is because it's the last form of defense against tyranny.
Ice T
I'm competitive in that I would like to outsell my last record.
Ice T
One of the things about powerful people is they have the ability to make it look easy.
Ice T
I've been pulled out of my nice new car and laid out in the street by the police, interrogated and then have them get in the car and roll off leaving me lying in the street without even saying 'Get up.' The humiliation that they can put on a black man because they determine that you ain't got the money.
Ice T
It's like a paradox. For one side, being popularized rap got better and the other side of it got worse. It's very pop and it's very different now. When you make it as pop and as soft as it is, it lacks its integrity. It lacks its accountability. It lacks a lot of other things that came from that dangerous time in hip hop.
Ice T
With the invention of the blog and all this Internet stuff, everybody has an opinion everybody has a voice. In fact, there was a time when the average person didn't have a voice so you had to pick an artist to speak for you.
Ice T
I have no hatred for cops. I have hatred for racists and brutal people, but not necessarily the cops. The cops are just doing what they're told to do.
Ice T
I look at my career and I feel I have the potential to maybe mature into a Samuel Jackson-type older cat, and people will still respect me and say 'Yo, Ice-T was wild', into my old age. And why not? I don't necessarily think I'll be rapping in 10 years.
Ice T
I don't feel that rap has been respected as an art form. Because people have seen rappers rap off the top of their heads, they don't think it is difficult.
Ice T
I think that a rap aficionado, the hardcore rap fan, will always go away from pop, in the same way a hardcore jazz fan will never think Kenny G is really a jazz artist. You gotta kind of know there's always going to be that purist who's going to be like if it ain't beats and rhymes, if there ain't a DJ, then that ain't Hip Hop.
Ice T
I've got a phone, answer machine, TV set, computer, hand grenade - everything you need to run a business in Los Angeles.
Ice T
I've never been a cop hater. You know, when I was breaking the law, the cops were the opponent. I just thought I could outsmart them.
