More quotes by Tyler Perry
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 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.
Tyler Perry
True love can come more than once.
Tyler Perry
When I have absolutely nothing to do, and I find myself in the middle of all of it going, Wow! When nothing's going on, that's when I get to stop and really appreciate the journey.
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
I know that my audience is largely women, so what I try to do a lot of times is address their issues.
Tyler Perry
I know my audience, and they're not people that the studios know anything about.
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
You can get a thousand no's from people, and only one yes from God.
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
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
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
It's so important to forgive people for their wrongs in your own life because every bit of it was for a reason-it was to form the person that you are.
Tyler Perry
It takes a week to do a sitcom in Hollywood. I do a show a day in my studio, three or four shows a week.
Tyler Perry
If you're black, you can't just be ordinary. All successful black people are extraordinary.
Tyler Perry
I don't think the dreams die - I think that people give up. I think it gets too hard.
Tyler Perry
I think, you know, the people that have seen my work, I think it speaks to the possibility of getting better, and, I'm sorry, I'm still on the last caller.
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've never chased money. It's always been about what I can do to motivate and inspire people.
Tyler Perry
Ever since I've been blessed with success, I've struggled a little with anonymity and even family. I've had people calling asking for money, and I have to ask them first, 'Are you working? Have you been trying to help yourself?' Then I feel like I can help.
Tyler Perry
