More quotes by RZA
It is sad that the world has gotten more of my time than my children, but my children benefit from it through their financial and economical freedom that I didn't have.
RZA
Love is mistranslated into sex, because sex is not an expression of love. Sex is an expression of physical activity. It can be an expression of love between two people in love, but it's a carnal expression.
RZA
I ask people what piece they are on the chessboard. And some people say 'I'm the king' or 'I'm the knight.' And then they ask me what piece I am, and I say, 'I'm no piece. I take the position of God.'
RZA
If you live through defeat, you are not defeated. If you are beaten but acquire wisdom, you have won. Lose yourself to improve yourself. Only when we shed all self-definition do we find who we really are.
RZA
Once you've got an inspired spark, you've got to strive. You've gotta keep putting wood on it, so they say, to keep it burning. But then there's the alchemist side of it, that's the fire that's burning but it don't burn.
RZA
Happiness is something you get from yourself. If you're completely satisfied with yourself, nobody can take it away from you.
RZA
Sometimes brothers are in war with each other, but at the end love conquers all.
RZA
I make a lot of money in my life, 50.000 dollars are nothing.
RZA
Find your true self. The old question, asked in many ages, Who am I? Once you figure out who am I, and you know who am I, then you have that knowledge of self.
RZA
I'd hate to compare art to life but I think a movie is an entity of its own, and when it's done, you want everybody to like it like you want everybody to like your children.
RZA
I think you gotta have some humor [in your story]. People gotta have a moment to laugh and feel that it's not taken 100% serious. That's important.
RZA
I advise everyone to find an island in this life. Find a place where this culture can't take energy away from you, sap your will and originality. Since anything physical can be mental, that island can be your home. Turn off the electromagnetic waves being forced upon you, the countless invisible forces coming at you all the time.
RZA
It's not good to argue with your woman about something, because women feel strong about it, they slap you in your face, you still go back to them.
RZA
Cats be talkin', Bobby I ain't feelin' ya. But I bet if I was peelin' your cap back with a two-shot Dillinger Hot lead released from my cylinder, You'd be talkin' 'bout, Bobby I'm feelin' ya!
RZA
I'd say that directing is in my heart. And that's where my focus is, like a laser beam. That's what I've been studying for a long time, and I think that everything that I've done before has contributed to the development of my craft as a director.
RZA
When I started emceein', you had 500 maybe 1000 rappers in the whole world. Now there's 1.000.000, nahmean?
RZA
We say knowledge is the basic foundation of the universe. Everything is first based on something being known.
RZA
In today's society, the forces against you are heavy against you. The whole goal is to get knowledge of yourself, but people are so far from themselves that they don't believe themselves.
RZA
Knowledge is like fire 'cause it breaks down things so you can see what they truly are. It's like how a fire breaks your body down to carbon.
RZA
I love vinyl, you know? To me it has depth, warmth, it's the best way to really sample.
RZA
