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
It doesn't matter if a million people tell you what you can't do, or if ten million tell you no. If you get one yes from God that's all you need.
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
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
What I have learned in this life is you can never be ashamed of where you come from.

I'm always on to something else. It's like, I'm sitting here now jotting down notes for something that's in my head. There's always something going on in my head, and I have to just keep executing.
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 wait for someone to green light your project, build your own intersection.
Tyler Perry
I'm good at giving up control to people who know where they're going and what they want to do. I can sit in the back of a car and ride cross-country if you know where you're going and you know how to take me there.
Tyler Perry
What I know about me is that, in order to lead, you also have to know how to follow.
