More quotes by 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
A miniskirt shows just enough to cause some mystery. What these young women lack is mystery so the old women have to have it.
Tyler Perry
People see truth in my films. That's what they react to, and that's what they relate to.
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
I know I can only do as much as I can do... Although I have so many ideas of my own, I'm still very interested in helping to cultivate and encourage some promising new artists. But there are a lot of people and, unfortunately, a very small window.
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
I wanted just for people to know that, no matter how simple your life is, if you have millions or you don't have anything, you can be happy where you are.
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
Fear is a sprit that really can stop you from living.
Tyler Perry
I think we are born into what we're supposed to learn and find out in this life.
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
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
What excites me? Had you asked me that question a few years ago, the answer would’ve rolled right off my tongue. Today, I think it's moving and uplifting my audience. Having them get it and go with it. That excites me.
Tyler Perry
Don't wait for someone to green light your project, build your own intersection.
Tyler Perry
You can get a thousand no's from people, and only one yes from God.
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
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
I didn't have a catharsis for my childhood pain, most of us don't, and until I learned how to forgive those people and let it go, I was unhappy.
Tyler Perry
The important thing for me is, and what I'd like people to know is that, one particular genre does not make it whole. There are many, many different genres and if you ever gave it an opportunity open mindedly, I think you'd find some pretty interesting things there.
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
