More From Mos Def

You're not going to be able to look like anyone else, no matter how hard you try, unless you're a mimic, then you're not acting, you're just mimicking. you can't go on being john wayne, that's john wayne. so you're not going to steal from john wayne. i'm not going to steal from john wayne and you're not going to come back and say 'didn't you get that from the circus?' you know. but he is one of those people who instructs me, whom i look up to - whom i think is one of the masters of his craft that i am so enamoured of.
Thinking People Trying
Wayne: you wanna know why i really came to find you? waxilliam: why? wayne: i thought of you happy in a comfy bed, resting and relaxing, spending the rest of your life sipping tea and reading papers while people bring you food and maids rub your toes and stuff. waxilliam: and? wayne: and i just couldn't leave you to a fate like that...i'm too good a friend to let a mate of mine die in such a terrible situation. waxilliam: comfortable? wayne: no. boring.
Reading Fate People
I looked at people like lil wayne. i would go to the studio and i would observe wayne, and i would literally pray. i would say 'god, give me his work ethic'.
People Giving Work Ethic
Wayne is my favorite person to work with though, because ooohh, oohh, lil wayne is just too good, he's just too good.
My Favorite Wayne Favorite Person
I was worth about over a million dollars when i was 23 and over ten million dollars when i was 24, and over a hundred million dollars when i was 25 and... it wasn't that important — because i never did it for the money.
Important Dollars Hundred
As the original 'mary poppins' budget of five million dollars continued to grow, i never saw a sad face around the entire studio. and this made me nervous. i knew the picture would have to gross 10 million dollars for us to break even. but still there was no negative head-shaking. no prophets of doom. even roy was happy. he didn't even ask me to show the unfinished picture to a banker. the horrible thought struck me - suppose the staff had finally conceded that i knew what i was doing.

Similar Quotes
I do not remember very many things from the inside out. i do not remember what it felt like to touch things, or how bathwater traveled over my skin. i did not like to be touched, but it was a strange dislike. i did not like to be touched because i craved it too much. i wanted to be held very tight so i would not break. even now, when people lean down to touch me, or hug me, or put a hand on my shoulder, i hold my breath. i turn my face. i want to cry.
