More quotes by Kanye West
I think that’s a responsibility that I have, to push possibilities, to show people: “This is the level that things could be at.”
Kanye West
Life is 5% what happens, and 95% how you react.
Kanye West
It's about whatever I want to make it about. It's my world.
Kanye West
One of my biggest Achilles’ heels has been my ego. And if I, Kanye West, the very person, can remove my ego, I think there’s hope for everyone.
Kanye West
I've been saying how I feel at the wrong time.
Kanye West
I would like to thank Julius Caesar for originating my hairstyle.
Kanye West
I think my sense of humor is really dark and super twisted and stuff like that. It's like, Is this a funny joke for real? Or am I just rich? See? That was funny.
Kanye West
I know you can't control everything, and everything is in God's hands ultimately, but I'm going to fight, go out and perform for everybody, I don't care.
Kanye West
The dinosaurs are remember only by their bones. What will we be remembered for with humanity?
Kanye West
Fur pillows are hard to actually sleep on.
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
So few hip-hop artists have ever advanced. Their songs on their seventh, eighth albums sound exactly like the songs on their first album. More than an artist, I'm a real person-and real people grow. And I wanna just sing my growth.
Kanye West
The only luxury is time. The time you get to spend with your family.
Kanye West
Just know that if you want to be a boxer you're going to get your face beaten constantly but then you may end up being a Mayweather or an Ali at the end of the day.
Kanye West
My goal, if I was going to do art, fine art, would have been to become Picasso or greater. That always sounds so funny to people, comparing yourself to someone in the past that has done so much, and in your life you’re not even allowed to think that you can do as much. That’s a mentality that suppresses humanity.
Kanye West
Creative output, you know, is just pain. I'm going to be cliché for a minute and say that great art comes from pain.
Kanye West
A lot of artists have a lot of different ventures, I think it's typical for a hip hop artist, at this point, to have a bunch of different ventures.
Kanye West
Im doing pretty good as far as geniuses go ... Im like a machine. Im a robot. You cannot offend a robot ... Im going down as a legend, whether or not you like me or not. I am the new Jim Morrison. I am the new Kurt Cobain ... The Bible had 20, 30, 40, 50 characters in it. You dont think that I would be one of the characters of todays modern Bible?
Kanye West
The bathrooms - that usually would be a porta-potty - were wrapped in a fabric that was neutral to match the fort ... the same materials that were used to cover the bathroom, we said, 'Let's just use that [to cover a bar at the reception], because this is all we have to make the bar look better.' Which it did, in the end.
Kanye West
Dark Fantasy was my long, backhanded apology. You know how people give a backhanded compliment? It was a backhanded apology. It was like, all these raps, all these sonic acrobatics. I was like: Let me show you guys what I can do, and please accept me back. You want to have me on your shelves.
Kanye West
