More quotes by Ja Rule
I believe in God and a higher power. I'm still not the religious type per se because religion tore my family apart. I'm still a little scared and skeptical being one with any faith.
Ja Rule
Film and TV and stuff like that was something that I wanted to do when I was really, really little like, I remember I used to do these plays with my cousins. We used to do Michael Jackson performances, and I would be Michael.
Ja Rule
After doing two years in prison, trust me, I've seen a lot of tough guys pray. They're not just praying for themselves they're praying for their family and the people they've let down.

I'm a breakfast type of guy. Don't get me wrong. I can cook, I'm kinda nice on the burner, but I enjoy making breakfast. I do it all... Scrambled eggs... French toast... Pancakes... Breakfast is my thing.
Ja Rule
The best decision I ever made, period, was to get into the music business.

Being incarcerated is truly very serious, and it has changed my life to such an extent that breaking the cycle has become my sole focus. Jail is definitely not cool. Education is.

I'm an adrenaline guy. I like to do stuff that gets my blood pumping, like roller coasters or jumping out of planes. I'm into all that crazy stuff.

I ain't done nothing wrong, but love thy self. And harm other niggaz that wanna stop my health.
Ja Rule
Because you know, we live in an era now where everything is pushed. We live in a push world where everything gets pushed to you. It's like, I don't have to wait for you to send it to me, I'll go get it off the Internet. So it was difficult to be back in that sort of situation. But it was cool.
Ja Rule
The public makes it so that we have to keep assaulting each other.
Ja Rule
I'm still waiting for the Lord to come hug me.
Ja Rule
I've always been a spiritual person who believed in a Higher Power. So, I've always had my 1-on-1 with God, even if I wasn't much of a religious person.
Ja Rule
I feel like unforgiveness, bitterness and resentment, it blocks the flows of God's blessings in life.
Ja Rule
Broke with nothing to live for and damn ready to die young. I'm the shadow behind the gun, look what I've become.
Ja Rule
A lot of people say I tried to emulate Tupac, but when I look back at my career, we're very different artists. I took pages out of Pac's book, of course, and lots of other rappers - Biggie, Nas - of course you take pages out of those books, but you eventually make it your own thing. And I think I did a good job of that.
Ja Rule
The rules, religion to religion that man set forth, made me shy away from religion and have my own one on one with God and cut out the middleman.

There's always something going on on movie sets. Even just from, you know, maybe you come in tired some days and you're not in your best mood. It's different when you're shooting movies because you're on a schedule and you gotta come with your A-game every day.
