Nike told me, 'We can't give you royalties because you're not a professional athlete.' I told them 'I'll go to the Garden and play one-on-no-one.' I'm a performance athlete!

More quotes by Kanye West
The way Kathy Lee needs Regis, that's the way I need Jesus.
Kanye West
I don't care about having a legacy, I don't care about being remembered. The most important thing to me is, while we're here, while we're having fun, while we're sleeping, breathng oxygen, living life, falling in love, having pain and having joy...what can we do with our voice to make things easier, to help someone to make it better for our kids.
Kanye West
I fervently believe that, as someone has said before, When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change. I want to help change the way young people look at school, and hence, the way they look at their futures.
Kanye West
I am not what I would consider truly a musician. I am an inventor. I am an innovator.
Kanye West
I worked a telemarketing job. I always worked those because I always knew how to talk to people and I always knew how to sell because my father was a salesman. He used to sell vacuum cleaners, payroll services to companies, so that was natural for me to go into sales.
Kanye West
People asked me to change my name for [808s]...I think the fact that I can't sing that well is what makes 808s so special.
Kanye West
I don’t know if this is statistically right, but I’m assuming I have the most Grammys of anyone my age, but I haven’t won one against a white person.
Kanye West
If I do become more successful, either as a producer or a rapper, I'm going to do everything I can to help whoever I can on the label.
Kanye West
Know your worth! People always act like they're doing more for you than you're doing for them.
Kanye West
I specifically ordered Persian rugs with cherub imagery!!! What do I have to do to get a simple Persian rug with cherub imagery uuuuugh.
Kanye West
As a man I am flawed, but my music is perfect.
Kanye West
I was on the junior team when I was a freshman, that’s how good I was. But I wasn’t on my eighth-grade team, because some coach - some Grammy, some reviewer, some fashion person, some blah blah blah - they’re all the same as that coach.
Kanye West
Look, I can be married to the most beautiful woman in the world, and I am. I can have the most beautiful little daughter in the world, and I have that. But I’m nothing if I can’t be me. If I can’t be true to myself, they don’t mean anything.
Kanye West
I hate when I'm on a flight and I wake up with a water bottle next to me like oh great now I gotta be responsible for this water bottle.
Kanye West
What happens if a drone falls right next to her?
Kanye West
I need the information and then I can go. So, as long as I have the information and a little bit of sleep, I can do the rest.
Kanye West
I feel like it's almost a Renaissance thing, a painting, a modern version of a painting. I think it's important for Kim [Kardashian] to have her figure. To not show it would be like Adele not singing.
Kanye West
An artist's career doesn't happen in the cycle of one week of news. An artist's career happens in a lifetime, and if you're a true artist you're willing to die for what you believe in.
Kanye West
Rome wasn't built in a day, and the internet is our new Rome
Kanye West
I used to have insecurity about my finances, then I announced that I had debt, and now I don't have any insecurities.
