More quotes by 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
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
I haven't had a worst business decision, because I believe all things work together for good.
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
My father who was there in the house, he wasn't at all a role model. And my mother, who was trying to protect me from him as best she could, she took me everywhere with her, which gave me a tremendous amount of sensitivity to the things women go through.
Tyler Perry
My mother wasn't strong like my aunt. She was just very passive.

Tyler Perry
I want to be remembered as a guy who inspired, encouraged and made people laugh.
Tyler Perry
I live my life outside of the box because when I die they're going to put me into one!
Tyler Perry
Don't stop. Narrow your focus to one idea, and make it work. That will give birth to all of the others. All you can do is plant the seed and water it.
Tyler Perry
You let your past destroy you, or you use it to create something better
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
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
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
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
Statistics say that I'm supposed to be in jail. And I'm not supposed to be alive.
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
I think that people think when you have money that your problems go away and everything's solved, and it's great and wonderful. You're a perfect human being.
Tyler Perry
Seeing people laugh definitely inspires me, and so does seeing people get life lessons about living better.
