More quotes by Nas
So many affluent men are faced with finding love problems. I'm sure beautiful, affluent women are faced with the same things sometimes.
Nas
In hip hop no one cares. No one stands up for it and it's a mess. We need order so we can all follow the tradition of where we came from. We need to keep referring to the pioneers.
Nas
Born alone, die alone, no crew to keep my crown or throne
Nas
Always observe, watch, and talk to older people.
Nas
Anybody I'm dating, I don't want them to talk about my music. I don't talk about my music to them.

Hip-hop is really standoffish. It's really competitive and it's really about who's number one all the time. Sometimes it gets out of hand.
Nas
Don't ever give up on yourself. Keep pushing because the change of guards is what life's all about.
Nas
People have stopped battling in hip hop, in the primitive sense, and the focus of the competitive element has shifted to the music. It's less about bragging and more about being the best lyrically and poetically.
Nas
Every time I get in the studio, I feel like I wanna have some fun. My fun is not doing the easy work. My fun is doing what's me.
Nas
New York city is full of great spaces. The best spaces of the world are here. This is the new Europe, where the settlers came and busted out their ideas and put it down so there's nothing but great space in this great city.
Nas
If the truth is told, the youth can grow.
Nas
What you base your happiness around? Material, women, and large paper? That means you inferior, not major.
Nas
I lay puzzle as I backtrack to earlier times, Nothing's equivalent to the New York state of mind
Nas
Play it cool, that's the old school rule man.
