More quotes by 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
I am so proud to be from New Orleans and to be one of those people who had been displaced. I wasn't there during that time, but that's where I come from, that kind of poverty, and I'm very, very proud of that because it's given me my history.
Tyler Perry
We don't have to wait for people to green light our projects, we can create our own intersections.
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...
Tyler Perry
...when you put on your shortest dress, please leave some mystery in it. That's the difference between a miniskirt and a ho-skirt. A ho-skirt shows your Frisbee. A miniskirt shows just enough to cause some mystery. What these young women lack is mystery.
Tyler Perry
I've never chased money. It's always been about what I can do to motivate and inspire people.
Tyler Perry
I'm not sure why no one wants to admit there's a viable audience out there that believes in God and wants to see a movie with their family. The demand is there. The supply is not.
Tyler Perry
Rather than focus on your critics, focus on the people who are impacted by your work.
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
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
You can get a thousand no's from people, and only one yes from God.
Tyler Perry
I don't do divas. I don't do entourages. I don't do the Hollywood crap.
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
There's nothing like real forgiveness, a deep-down forgiveness where you don't hold any grudges against people. I forgave for the things they didn't know and for the things they didn't know to do.
Tyler Perry
If you've ever watched anything that I do, and you completely give it a chance and take the blinders off, and you'll understand that the underlying theme of everything I've done has been about forgiveness, learning to move on.
Tyler Perry
There were only 3 people that I wanted to meet in life, Nelson Mandela was one of them. What a life, what a journey, what a man. Thank you for passing this way! God bless your resting soul!
Tyler Perry
You will always fine jealous people.They're the ones promoting you.
Tyler Perry
I work three months really hard, nonstop, and then I take a month off. Then I do it all over again. I work hard but I give myself four breaks a year.
Tyler Perry
God gives everyone a lane and no one can beat you in your lane. Just stay focused on Him and what you are supposed to do. And everything will be alright.
Tyler Perry
I know my audience, and they're not people that the studios know anything about.
Tyler Perry
