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
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
Happiness is something you get from yourself. If you're completely satisfied with yourself, nobody can take it away from you.
RZA
Grew up in Stapleton House village, where blood flood the waters in the streets like oil spillage
RZA
My time is being shared with my fans and the people of the world, while I have got children growing with a lot of days of not seeing their father.
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
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

RZA
You are a 64-track recording - the tracks are always there, they're always with you. Sometimes the harsh tracks are cranked up and the rest are rolled down to zero. Other times the sweet tracks are high and the darkness is low. But it's all you.
RZA
I build myself back up and come back stronger. That's what I do.
RZA
I believe in the 12 Jewels and try to provide my childrem with them. That is Knowledge, Wisdom, Understanding, Freedom, Justice, Equality, Food, Clothing, Shelter, Love, Peace and Happiness.
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
The fundamental message of the Wu Tang music is as vast as the ocean in all reality, but it's still a straight path. You can take one lyric and by researching what that lyric is giving out to you, it should give you more than a day's worth of school, maybe three days' worth of school.
RZA
Do the knowledge, meaning: look, listen, observe, and also respect. If you do that, you'll have a strong foundation to build anything you want to do in life upon. Know before you do. Look before you leap. And if you want to follow in my footsteps, make sure you step in the ones that went in the right direction.
RZA
Don't wait till you die to go to heaven.
RZA
That's what I am. I warn people. Whenever I see and I feel things in my heart, I speak it.
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
We say knowledge is the basic foundation of the universe. Everything is first based on something being known.
RZA
I can't say unfortunately but sadly - I've got babies in more than one household.
RZA
There are lawyers advising to sue, so the lawyers can keep their retainments.
