More quotes by Jay-Z
If the beat is time, flow is what we do with that time, how we live through it. The beat is everywhere, but every life has to find its own flow.
Jay-Z
I will not lose, for even in defeat/There's a valuable lesson learned, so it evens up for me
Jay-Z
Artists can have greater access to reality they can see patterns and details and connections that other people, distracted by the blur of life, might miss. Just sharing that truth can be a very powerful thing.
Jay-Z
You can pay for school, but you can't buy class
Jay-Z
Put me anywhere on God's green earth, I'll triple my worth. Motherf--. I, will, not, lose.
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
You could name practically any problem in the hood and there'd be a rap song for you.
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
You ain't gotta go to church to find your God.
Jay-Z
I'm hungry for knowledge. The whole thing is to learn every day, to get brighter and brighter. That's what this world is about. You look at someone like Gandhi, and he glowed. Martin Luther King glowed. Muhammad Ali glows. I think that's from being bright all the time, and trying to be brighter.
Jay-Z
For me, being with Obama or having dinner with Bill Clinton... It's crazy. It's mind-blowing, because where I come from is just another world. We were just ignored by politicians, by America in general.
Jay-Z
Remind yourself. Nobody built like you, you design yourself.
Jay-Z
I look in the mirror, my only opponent
Jay-Z
Your future is ahead of you. Imagine the notion of the past fifteen years of your life being a blip in your story.
Jay-Z
I use a lot of double meanings. I hide 'em like Easter eggs.
Jay-Z
If your dad died before you were born, yeah, it hurts — but it’s not like you had a connection with something that was real. Not to say it’s any better — but to have that connection and then have it ripped away was, like, the worst. My dad was such a good dad that when he left, he left a huge scar. He was my superhero.
Jay-Z
When I listen to great music, the first thing I wonder is what people were saying when this came out of the speakers in the studio. I want to know what happened when they played it and said, This is the one!
Jay-Z
I believe you can speak things into existence.
Jay-Z
I seen the worst of the worst. I deserve every blessing I receive I'm from the dirt.
Jay-Z
The genius thing that we did was, we didn't give up.
