More quotes by Nas
You can't please everybody. You['d] be crazy if you're trying to. So take some time out to do some things for yourself.
Nas
When your so focused on what people say, how can your really be focused on the music? If you're concerned with what someone says, you aren't working on a real record. You're working on something that's just for now, to please people this very second... because you don't believe in yourself.
Nas
Big L scared me to death. When I heard that on tape, I was scared to death. I was like there's no way I can compete if this is what I gotta compete with.
Nas
The Internet made the world smaller, so it's easier for people to hear your music. You don't necessarily need a radio record.
Nas
Sunlight and seeing something that was a thought become a thing and materialize - that makes me come alive.
Nas
It's foul what this money could do, cash corrupts the loyal.
Nas
You a slave to a page in my rhyme book.
Nas

Nas
Always observe, watch, and talk to older people.
Nas
If you really believe in yourself and your music that much, you're gonna do your thing, regardless what people say.
Nas

Nas
The further I get, the further I want to go
Nas
I think most albums deserve a documentary because [an album] is a visual book. You don't have to read up on it because you can listen and watch the whole story. I would love to see lots of albums [become films.]
Nas
What you base your happiness around? Material, women, and large paper? That means you inferior, not major.
Nas
I'm never gonna die, never heard of death, energy can never be destroyed only the flesh, so when you try to murder me with bullets to the head this is why you can't kill me niggaz, I'm already dead.
Nas
Failure is not an option, and I always felt like I'm a man who doesn't have regrets, and I don't live with excuses. I can't take excuses.
Nas
I'm sure we're gonna meet some bumps in the road, but if it's meant to be it will happen.
Nas
You're supposed to be who you are. You're supposed to make music that is true to you.
Nas
Africa has been going through so much for so many years it's time that it stands up the way other nations are standing up.
Nas
