Usher
If you don't EVOLVE, you dissolve. You evolve or you evaporate.
Usher

Usher
Giving a child an education is by far one of the most important investments we can make.
Usher
Just because we have success in the moment, it doesn't mean anything.
Usher
How do I define who Usher is? I'm still doing it - every day, every new opportunity, every stage, every interview, every other thing that I've done, every time that I've invested in anything that is all the definition of who I am.
Usher
I tried football and got my ass beat. I tried baseball, and the ball knocked out one of my teeth.
