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.

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
Complainin' to my lawyer how this rookie tried to frisk me... Jealous of my jeep, I gave his badge to the chief, And got his ass directin' traffic in the heat for a week.

When scoring a film, empathy is the key. And it is just as important to use music to express the actors' emotions as it is to move the audience.
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.

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.

Every aspect of your personality, if you're wise, you're able to separate each one of them and put them to use at the best time for the best position.

If there's no deals being made rappers, what happens to the lawyers. They've got to close their firms, they can't make no money. How can they make money from the client now? Litigation!
