More quotes by Nas
The whole thing is, do as much as you can, when you possibly can, and don't stress.
Nas
All I need is one mic One beat, one stage One ni%$a frontin' my face on the front page Only if I had one gun, one girl and one crib One god to show me how to do things his son did.
Nas
I never see the whips niggas be claimin' they drivin, I guess 'entertainment' means blatantly lyin'.
Nas
I like the way hip-hop is now. It's grown up enough so that it can get involved with politics if it feels like it.
Nas
I've gone through too much, from beefs to divorce to my mom passing which I always expressed in my music, so there's not album that sticks out as more important than the other to me.
Nas
What you base your happiness around? Material, women, and large paper? That means you inferior, not major.
Nas
I just enjoy life now. I just enjoy every morning I get to wake up.
Nas
I'm inspired by people like Nelson Mandela. Can you imagine - you know how racist America was back then - imagine how racism was in South Africa when he had to stand up and say what he had to say. That's bravery beyond comprehension.
Nas
If the truth is told, the youth can grow.
Nas
I'm a reader, so when I go to bookstores I need (stuff) that's going to help me. There a big emptiness there and I want to help fill that through song.
Nas
Life is short is what some niggaz said not if you measure life - by how one lives and what he did.
Nas
Just do as much as you can.
Nas
I used to carry a notebook to the studio. I don't do that no more 'cause I don't have the time to write anywhere but right there in the studio on the spot. So when you hear my stuff, know that I wrote it in the studio.
Nas
We're all Africans, everyone - black, white, yellow.
Nas
Love the skinny model chicks but I prefer the thickness.
Nas
Whose world is this? The world is yours.
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
Mind's in another world thinking how can we exist through the facts
Nas
I don't meditate. Silence is golden though.
Nas
I'm not talking about Russia in my music. I've never been to Russia. I'm not talking about Africa, Switzerland, China. I'm talking about me being American and growing up in a crazy world and helping to reflect all different sides of life.
Nas
