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
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
We put out real hip-hop at a time when it was turning into pop or R&B ... We brought the focus back to the music in its rawest form, without studio polish or radio hooks. ... People want something that gives them an adrenaline rush. We're here to supply that fix.
RZA
The body is a vehicle for the mind, and that vehicle is how you travel through space.
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 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
Just bring love. Everybody keeps bringing violence, let's bring love.
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
That's what I am. I warn people. Whenever I see and I feel things in my heart, I speak it.
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
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
After knowledge comes wisdom. After wisdom comes understanding.
RZA
The most revealing books are the Holy Koran and the Holy Bible. The Bhagavad Gita is a great book as well, and the works of Buddha. These are the major influences on the world.
RZA
This is a robbery, boy, gimme them dollars. We hit the lottery, boy, it's in ya wallets!
RZA
Just as you must come through a woman's womb to attain physical birth, so must you come through Wisdom to achieve mental birth. And like childbirth, Wisdom often comes with pain.
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
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.

How can hip hop be dead if Wu-Tang is forever?
