More quotes by 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
Don't speak to fools, they scorn the wisdom of your words.
Nas
I don't get jealousy, I don't get how people hate each other - I never did.
Nas
I don't have time for the news clippings. I got my own mission.
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
Everything will eventually come to an end, So try to savor the moment, cause time flies, don't it? The beauty of life, you gotta make it last for the better, Cause nothin' lasts forever.
Nas

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
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
I fell in love with words and I think that made my mom smile. I think that was cool for her.

Just do as much as you can.
Nas
If you really believe in yourself and your music that much, you're gonna do your thing, regardless what people say.
Nas
Hip-hop artist, especially the older ones, are the ones who new hip-hop was a worldwide phenomenon before the mainstream caught on, so hip-hop artists are forward thinkers. We want to stay with the new.
Nas
I just enjoy life now. I just enjoy every morning I get to wake up.
Nas
