More quotes by Tyler Perry
The most important thing that I learned in growing up is that forgiveness is something that, when you do it, you free yourself to move on.
Tyler Perry
What I've never wanted to do was allow myself to be put in a box, so I've tried to do a lot of different things so this is a step in trying to do something different so we'll see how it goes. I'm under no illusions that this is slam-dunk. I did the best I could and that's all I can rely on.
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
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
My mother wasn't strong like my aunt. She was just very passive.

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 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
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
I think there's something that happens at 40 where you settle into your own skin and you stop caring what people think - you realize life is a gift from God and you want to live it to the fullest.
Tyler Perry
You put some Vaseline under your eyes at night and under your chin, and you put a little bit on your chest and you'll avoid stretch marks and I'll get you some Vaseline, you can change your oil and fry chicken with it, too, but you best make sure you have something.
Tyler Perry
Once you're truly happy with yourself alone, that's when you are safe to find the right person to spend the rest of your life with.
Tyler Perry
'Madea' is a Southern term. It's short for 'mother dear.' So there are a lot of Madeas out there.
Tyler Perry
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.
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
Life is so precious, such a gift, and that you have to live for you.
Tyler Perry
I've never chased money. It's always been about what I can do to motivate and inspire people.

You can't build your life around hurts from the past -Tyler Perry The Family That Preys
Tyler Perry
I've always wanted to work with Blair, and finally the timing was right. I have a tremendous amount of respect for him. I think he's a hugely underrated actor in Hollywood.
Tyler Perry
It's most important that you surround yourself with positivity always, and have it in your mind at all times.
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.
