Measure a man by his actions fully from the beginning to the end. Don’t take a piece out of my life or a song out of my music and say this is what I’m about because you know better than that.

More quotes by Tupac Shakur
Let me say for the record, I am not a gangster and never have been. I'm not the thief who grabs your purse. I'm not the guy who jacks your car. I'm not down with people who steal and hurt others. I'm just a brother who fights back. I'm not some violent closet psycho. I've got a job. I'm an artist.
Tupac Shakur
No one knows my Struggle, they only see the Trouble. Not knowing it's hard to carry on when, No one loves you.
Tupac Shakur

We look at death from the selfish side, like: That guy died. Oh, it's so sad. Why is it sad? He's away from all of this bad stuff that's here on Earth. I mean, at the worst, he's just somewhere quiet, no nothing. At best, he's an angel... or he's a spirit somewhere. What is so bad about that?
Tupac Shakur

Tupac Shakur
If we're all saying that rap is an art form then we gotta be more responsible for our lyrics. If you see everybody dying because of what you're saying, it don't matter that you didn't make them die, it just matters that you didn't save them.
Tupac Shakur
So many other things for us to see, Things to be, Our history so full of tragedy and misery.
Tupac Shakur
And did you ever stop to think that im old enough to go to war but i aint old enough to drink.
