More quotes by Wale
One thing Jay z told me that always sticks with me, is that, the album is never how you viewed it to be.
Wale
There's a lot of real unity - and a lot fake unity, sadly. I think a lot of people are going to get an opportunity to pursue greatness and pursue careers outside of D.C. Not everybody is going to make it. I think there's a connotation that there's a lack of rappers out there.
Wale
The Loudest person in the room, is usually the brokest
Wale
I'm never satisfied, man. I'm Virgo. We overanalyze and we're never satisfied. So I'm gonna keep going 'til the wheels fall off.
Wale
Every artist is supposed to get emotional. You're painting pictures of emotions.
Wale
I don't wanna sound pretentious talking about myself.
Wale
Failure is not an option. Success is just a process.
Wale
Not to sound corny, but intelligence is big. Everything fades, and everything can be modified. But intelligence is something you cant fake. Im not even talking about whether you can read a thesaurus backwards. But there is a beauty in common sense.
Wale
Life without dreaming is a life without meaning.
Wale
No days off. I'm a workaholic.
Wale
I dated all these girls and ended up not liking them and thought to myself, 'What was it that all of them had in common?' They had too much time on their hands. Even though they were pretty, they lacked something. A woman could be less attractive but with ambition and drive, that's the most beautiful thing.
Wale
I'd love a super human memory. My memory has never been good.
Wale
I could have easily got T-Pain or anybody like that, but let me just get somebody very left. That'll wake them up. Gaga. She's never done a rap record before. Pay attention. It's a method to my madness.
Wale
Riding in another drop, ain't talking Enterprise They try to see me, get diabetes from humble pie
Wale
If I woke up tomorrow and didn't have a dolla, as long as I have my heart, I can get it all over.
Wale
Ambition is priceless, its something that's in your veins.
Wale
Initially, I felt like my duty was to just keep it positive and be positive and sometimes I crack in that. We're human. I'm imperfect at times and that was just me being imperfect at that one point.
Wale
I dated a lot, but I never really had anyone who was worthy of an anniversary. And most girlfriends never made it to a year, anyway.
Wale
Jay-Z's my favorite rapper, but why can't I aspire to be better than him?
Wale
I want people to be like, 'Your album's just as good as Kendrick [Lamar]'s or Esperanza Spalding or Beck. I work just as hard as them.
Wale
