More quotes by Nas
I definitely have plans to do more collaboration albums in the future. I'm a big fan of Common. I'm a big fan of Scarface I'm a big fan of so many people, from Jeezy to... well, there are a lot of people's music that I respect. I don't know who I will collaborate with, but there's a great chance of something happening.

I don't get jealousy, I don't get how people hate each other - I never did.
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
I got the opportunity to meet people all over the world. Brilliant women, tall women, short women, slim women, thick women, you name it. But, I don't meet them. I have the opportunities to and it's a little bit - I'm a little shy, so I don't meet them and I don't know who's right for me.

I never see the whips niggas be claimin' they drivin, I guess 'entertainment' means blatantly lyin'.
Nas
Me and hip-hop have a relationship that has nothing to do with no other rapper, no matter where you from or nothing. Every n*gga got his own personal relationship with hip-hop and this is mine.
Nas
The big stars in rap, they were too big, so when my rap generation started, it was about bringing you inside my apartment. It wasn't about being a rap star it was about anything other than.
Nas
Respect all fear none my pride is everything
Nas
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
Some people work hard to be something that they're not, and I don't work at all, I'm just me. And that can bother anybody I'm not working nearly as hard as the other guys, and they don't like it.
Nas
I push my own limits every day, every moment - in the studio, on the stage and beyond so it's truly a genuine fit.
Nas
I don't kill soloists only kill squads
Nas
Every generation witnesses atrocities. People in power try to fulfill prophecy.
Nas
You are who you associate with. Look around at your five closest friends and that's who you are. If you don't want to be that person, you know what you gotta do.
Nas
I have no tattoos that I regret - I have had some that I have had changed according to how my life was.
Nas
And the stuff that I write, is even tougher than dykes.
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
Play it cool, that's the old school rule man.
Nas
I've been lucky enough to reach a place where I can speak what's in my heart, and people know that it comes from a real place I don't have to worry about doing what someone's not doing - I can do me.
Nas
I didn't really do many business ventures throughout my career because I would have an idea and then before I'd have a chance to make something of it, I'd see someone else do it. I just liked to watch my fellow artists become entrepreneurs and be people who can inspire the next generation. I did that more with my songs.
Nas
