The plan was to drink until the pain is over, But what's worse, the pain or the hangover?

It's so hard to do fittings [for Yeezy] because we want to do things that are inspiring, that people could look at and say, Wow, I like that color palette, I could put that together. And there are so many images of things that it's almost impossible to have your clothes go up against the amount you're seeing and carry it into one language.

I spent two of my checks in telemarketing when I was 18 years old on my first pair of Gucci slippers, and this was before H&M and Zara. You couldn't just find cool stuff growing up, and for me, I care about cool stuff, it means a lot to me and people like me.

I said Yo Jay, I can rap. And I spit this rap that said I'm killin' ya'll *****s on this lyrical sh*t, mayonnaise colored benz, I push miracle whips.

I'm never at my worst because even at my lowest, its a learning experience. It's something that I'll bounce ideas off. I can take negatives and flip them to positives at all times.

Everybody in hip-hop discriminates against gay people. Matter of fact, the exact opposite word of 'hip-hop,' I think, is 'gay.' Like yo, you play a record and if it's wack, 'That's gay, dog!' And I wanna just come on TV and just tell my rappers, just tell my friends, 'Yo, stop it, fam.'

Love your haters - they're your biggest fans

The dinosaurs are remember only by their bones. What will we be remembered for with humanity?
Kanye West

Never stop fighting no matter what anyone says. If it's in your gut, your soul, there's nothing, no worldly possession that should come between you and your expression.

The way Kathy Lee needs Regis, that's the way I need Jesus.

When we die, the money we can't keep, But we probably spend it all 'cause the pain ain't cheap...

Nothing in life is promised except death.

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.

For me giving up is way harder than trying.

I refuse to follow the rules where society tries to control people with low self esteem.

Well, I just don't want to talk to America about my family. Like, this is my baby. This isn't America's baby.

I think that’s a responsibility that I have, to push possibilities, to show people: “This is the level that things could be at.”
