I'm not saying girls are perfect, because we all know that's not true. But why be unfaithful to her if she was true to you.
Tupac Shakur
People look to me to do things for them, to have answers.
Tupac Shakur
Well, the first two days in prison, I had to go through what life is like when you've been smoking weed for as long as I have and then you stop. Emotionally, it was like I didn't know myself.

It's like if you plant something in the concrete and if it grow and the rose petal got all kinds of scratches and marks, you ain't gonna say, 'Damn, look at all the scratches and marks on the rose that grew from the concrete.' You're gonna be like, 'Damn, a rose grew from the concrete?'

Life give to you what you gave to it. So give your best.
Tupac Shakur
God come save the youth, Ain't nothin else to do but have faith in you, Dear Lord I live the life of a Thug, hope you understand Forgive me for my mistakes, I gotta play my hand.

Gangsta Rap is dead. I've moved on. And the raps that I'm rappin to my community shouldn't be filled with rage? They shouldn't be filled with same attrocities that they gave me? The media they don't talk about it, so in my raps I have to talk about it, and it seems foreign because there's no one else talking about it.
Tupac Shakur
And I... started off dumb, raised by the hoodrats, listen to the radio wishin that i could rap.
Tupac Shakur
Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live, and let's change the way we treat each other.
Tupac Shakur
Out of anger comes controversy, out of controversy comes conversation, out of conversation comes action.
Tupac Shakur
Everything in life is not all beautiful, not all fun. There is lots of killing and drugs.
Tupac Shakur
If I could patent 'being real', I think I could own that.
Tupac Shakur
My mother was a woman. A black woman. A single mother. Raising two kids on her own. So she was dark skinned. Had short hair. Got no love from nobody except for a group called the Black Panthers. So that's why she was a Black Panther.
Tupac Shakur
I was looking for a father, he was gone. I hung around with the thugs, and even though they sold drugs, they showed a young brother love.
Tupac Shakur
I only wrote one song in jail. But I'm writing new album - you're going to feel the entire 11 months of what I went through on this album. I'm venting my anger.
Tupac Shakur
What people do for the struggle of power is madness.
