More quotes by Tyler Perry
I think every one of us, in life, have some sort of moment that has happened that we wish we could have done differently or that we wish could have had a different outcome.
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 get a thousand no's from people, and only one yes from God.
Tyler Perry
I want an open dialogue. I want husbands and wives and people in relationships to walk out of the theater thinking, Could this happen to me? I know I'm being tempted.
Tyler Perry
There's a huge demand for my entertainment, and I can't meet the need. So I decided to try a TV show to reach as many of my fans as possible.
Tyler Perry
We don't have to wait for people to green light our projects, we can create our own intersections.
Tyler Perry
I'm a child who was abused. I know the difference. I clearly know the difference. The whipping for correction and then their child abuse.
Tyler Perry
I know that my audience is largely women, so what I try to do a lot of times is address their issues.
Tyler Perry
Children love their mothers. Especially with a boy child and his mother, there's a bond that's unbreakable.
Tyler Perry
What I know about me is that, in order to lead, you also have to know how to follow.
Tyler Perry
Fear is a sprit that really can stop you from living.
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
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
Developing a good work ethic is a key [to success]. Apply yourself at whatever you do, whether you're a janitor or taking your first summer job, because that work ethic will be reflected in everything you do in life.
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
For as low as you go, ask God to take you that high.
Tyler Perry
Tyler Perry's brand is faith, family and this whole thing that I've built, while my company, 34th Street Films, is like Disney's Touchstone. We can do anything. People don't know what to expect from me yet.
Tyler Perry
My mother wasn't strong like my aunt. She was just very passive.
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
Everything that I talk about, pretty much, are things that I learned or understood over the years.
Tyler Perry
