If you're black, you can't just be ordinary. All successful black people are extraordinary.
Tyler Perry
A miniskirt shows just enough to cause some mystery. What these young women lack is mystery so the old women have to have it.

I have this huge, huge fan base of people who've never seen a Broadway show, but I think it's a great introduction to what Broadway is because my shows are not that. I think that if you're getting people to go to theater then somebody should be celebrating that.
Tyler Perry
I never thought of myself as a mogul, but it's really great to be in that position.

My father who was there in the house, he wasn't at all a role model. And my mother, who was trying to protect me from him as best she could, she took me everywhere with her, which gave me a tremendous amount of sensitivity to the things women go through.

Growing up, there was always music around, whether across the street, or on the next-door neighbor's stereo. So, as in life, music is always around, and it helps to heighten any emotion. Music is amazing.

My mother was truly my saving grace, because she would take me to church with her. I would see my mother smiling in the choir, and I wanted to know this God that made her so happy. If I had not had that faith in my life, I don't know where I would be right now.

Forgiveness is giving up the hope of what happened to you from being different.
Tyler Perry
Flying radio-controlled airplanes [is my guiltiest pleasure]. Only God would give me a hobby where I'm looking up to the sky. It's the only time where I am able to focus and concentrate on nothing but looking up. It's a fascinating hobby.
Tyler Perry
You can never be upset with the people who forced you into your dream or up higher.
Tyler Perry
I was a very poor young black boy in New Orleans, just a face without a name, swimming in a sea of poverty trying to survive.
Tyler Perry
Keep your dreams ALIVE. No matter how hard it gets, no matter how many people talk about you they're going to throw dirt on you but that's alright, when they put you in that box (after your dead), they're going to put dirt on you some more, so that's okay - GO, don't be afraid, have NO FEAR.
Tyler Perry
All my life I've tried to hide my height. I was taller than everybody else and stood out, so I would slouch and try to hide it.
Tyler Perry
I realized that here's a moment for me to learn so until I learn and understand more about how types of films are done - action, sci-fi - even though I have a desire to do it, I won't go into it until I'm very clear that I can do it and that moment hasn't come yet. Maybe one day I will ready, but for now, I just enjoyed playing the character.
Tyler Perry
Forgiveness is important in families, especially when there are so many secrets that need to be healed - for the most part, every family's got them.
Tyler Perry
It's a clear day Sonny, L A N D.
Tyler Perry
I know that my audience is largely women, so what I try to do a lot of times is address their issues.
