More quotes by Tyler Perry
People say the truth hurts. Hell no, it hurts even more if you do a whole bunch of foolishness to try and avoid it.
Tyler Perry
I love to see a woman in high-heeled shoes. There's something about the curve of the feet up the leg to the butt that's really, really wonderful, and the right pair of shoes can give you the right silhouette.
Tyler Perry
I totally give credit to God for all of this stuff, because if I had tried to make these things happen, I couldn't have. To have all these things happen has been absolutely amazing. The road that I'm on is a path that I didn't choose. It chose me. I'm just trying to walk it, and to do the best that I can to honor and respect it.
Tyler Perry
The important thing for me is, and what I'd like people to know is that, one particular genre does not make it whole. There are many, many different genres and if you ever gave it an opportunity open mindedly, I think you'd find some pretty interesting things there.
Tyler Perry
If you don't want my God here, you don't want me here either. God has been too good to me to go and try to sell out to get some money...

You can't build your life around hurts from the past -Tyler Perry The Family That Preys
Tyler Perry
I had one request when I started doing the plays. My prayer was: God let me do well enough to be able to take care of my mother. I was able to do that 'til the day she died because of my audience. So, they've already done enough. All I ask for now is their continued support.
Tyler Perry
Children love their mothers. Especially with a boy child and his mother, there's a bond that's unbreakable.
Tyler Perry
Hollywood is finally waking up to the fact that people who go to church also go to the movies. I'm not sure what took them so long to see that or how long they'll keep it up.
Tyler Perry
Don't believe the hype. I don't care how many number ones you have at the box office, I don't care how much they say you're great, don't believe it. Just stay in your lane and do what you're supposed to do.
Tyler Perry
Statistics say that I'm supposed to be in jail. And I'm not supposed to be alive.
Tyler Perry
I'm very open to fresh talent, and I love the underdog, people who have been counted out, because they come in with a different type of hunger. I'm all for the underdog, so I'd like to talk to anybody who shows up with that sort of thirst.
Tyler Perry
You know, people don't want their intelligence insulted. They don't want to be preached to. They don't want to be degraded. All they want to do is sit, laugh, have a good time, love one another, forget about what's going on in the world, and find something out so they can be useful in this life. Do this and you have common sense.
Tyler Perry
There was our house in New Orleans. Two blocks in front of us were these beautiful mansions and two blocks behind us were the ghetto, projects, and that's where I had to go to school, but I would always pattern my life looking forward. It was almost literal.
Tyler Perry
Seeing people laugh definitely inspires me, and so does seeing people get life lessons about living better.
Tyler Perry
The road that I'm on is a path that I didn't choose. It chose me. I'm just trying to walk it, and to do the best that I can to honor and respect it.
Tyler Perry
we didn't have much, but we had love.
Tyler Perry
It's always been easier for me to have a costume to hide behind.
Tyler Perry
The question that a lot of people ask me all the time is how did you make it? The truth be told, it was nothing but the grace of God.
Tyler Perry
I feel like I express myself, as an actor. Whatever the character is put in front of me, I try to bring truth to it, whichever way it lands. I try to bring as much truth to it and make it as believable as I can. I think that's the job of an actor.
