When you're growing up, your dad is your superhero. Once you've let yourself fall that in love with someone, once you put him on such a high pedestal and he lets you down, you never want to experience that pain again.

More quotes by Jay-Z
How could I be out there and not do anything?
Jay-Z
Wherever I go, I bring the culture with me, so that they can understand that it's attainable. I didn't do it any other way than through hip-hop.
Jay-Z
Don't tell me what was said about me. Tell me why they were so comfortable to say it to you.
Jay-Z
Be true to yourself- and keep things simple. People complicate things
Jay-Z
Gotta keep it peace like a buddhist Nobody gonna Wesley snipe me It's less than likely, Move back, Let I breathe Jedi knight, The more space I get the better I write, (Oh) Never I write, but, if, ever I write, I need the space to say whatever I like.
Jay-Z
The most amazing feeling I feel Words can't describe what I'm feeling for real Maybe I paint the sky blue My greatest creation was you.
Jay-Z
If I don't show the world growth, how are we going to grow?
Jay-Z
Now success was like lust, she's good to the touch, She's good for the moment, but she's never enough
Jay-Z
I like a girl who spend a little cash for her shoes.
Jay-Z
Difficult takes a day Impossible takes a week I do this in my sleep
Jay-Z
Successful people have a bigger fear of failure than people who've never done anything because if you haven't been successful, then you don't know how it feels to lose it all.
Jay-Z
My brands are an extension of me. They're close to me. It's not like running GM, where there's no emotional attachment.
Jay-Z
Everyone needs a chance to evolve.
Jay-Z
My thing is related to who I am as a person. The clothes are an extension of me. The music is an extension of me. All my businesses are part of the culture, so I have to stay true to whatever I'm feeling at the time, whatever direction I'm heading in. And hopefully, everyone follows.
Jay-Z
I was forced to be an artist and a CEO from the beginning, so I was forced to be like a businessman because when I was trying to get a record deal, it was so hard to get a record deal on my own that it was either give up or create my own company.
Jay-Z
What people do in their own homes is their business, and you can choose to love whoever you love. That's their business. It's no different than discriminating against blacks. It's discrimination, plain and simple.
Jay-Z
Electing a black man named Barack Obama President in the same country that elected George W. Bush - twice! - is as far-fetched as a hustler from Marcy performing at that President's inauguration. But it happened.
Jay-Z
I look in the mirror, my only opponent
Jay-Z
When you listen to an album, it shouldn't feel like, That's the girl song, That's the club song. I shouldn't know what you're thinking while you're making the song. I don't want to know what the artist is thinking.
Jay-Z
Everybody can tell you how to do it but they never done it
Jay-Z
