Usher
You can't fake being a star. But you can also become a great personality.
Usher
Sleeping is forbidden at the age of 22. It's all work and no play.
Usher
Learn from the mistakes of others. You can't make them all yourself.
Usher
Artists who are relevant today won't be tomorrow unless someone does the right thing by their character and preserves it in the dialogue of a movie.
Usher
I have this bodyguard so if I get tired of signing Autographs I ask him to step in. It's hard because people get angry at you, but I've got a life to live too.
Usher

Usher
It's a mission for me to make sure that philanthropy doesn't feel like a vintage hand-me-down from mom or dad. I want people to feel compelled to do something positive because they just love it, they're excited about it, and it's cool.
Usher

Usher

Usher
I guess I had it made. My mother gave me advice - she taught me that women like to be looked in the eye - and my grandmother gave me condoms.
Usher
The hardest thing I think I've ever had to do to tell you, the woman I love, that I'm having a baby by a woman that I barely know.
Usher
It can never be bad to have a foundation as a man - a black man - in a time when women are dying for men. Women have started to become lovers of each other as a result of not having enough men.
Usher
When I reflect on the issues that black Hollywood has had with the lack of representation at the Oscars, I realized that we have a responsibility to tell stories that are meaningful for our history.
Usher
My philosophy is I'm raising future adults, not children.
Usher
Success is all about having the confidence to shoot for something even if it seems impossible.
Usher
Giving a child an education is by far one of the most important investments we can make.
Usher
You either evolve or dissolve.
Usher
Down time is not the name of the game.
