Let your Christianity be so unmistakable, your eye so single, your heart so whole, your walk so straightforward, that all who see you may have no doubt whose you are, and whom you serve.

Keep it real by being straight forward. Don’t pull no punches on people. It’s better to tell somebody than just lollygag around, letting them think they’re living their life the right way. Because some people don’t know what the hell they’re doing, they don’t know if they’re living the right way or making the right decisions. Some people don’t know that.

During all my worrying about how and when and whether we’d ever get together again, I had neglected to imagine we might slip back together as naturally as a dislocated joint slipping back into place, followed by an ardor more straightforward than either of us had been capable of before.

People often relate childish behaviour to stupidity or foolishness. This needs to change. I want to level the playing field where I can learn from children. I can learn transparency from children. They’re innocent and straightforward.

My philosophy is that I am a friend of the children. I don’t think anyone should see them as pitiable subjects or charity. That is old people’s rhetoric. People often relate childish behaviour to stupidity or foolishness. This mindset needs to change. I want to level the playing field where I can learn from the children. Something I can learn from children is transparency. They are innocent, straightforward, and have no biases. I relate children to simplicity and I think that my friendship with children has a much deeper meaning than others.

Be an individual, work hard, study, get your mind straight, and trust nobody.

Some stories are true that never happened.

Honeypie, I’m far too fly to be on standby Sending me straight to voicemail, sugar, what the hell?

I would go through all this pain Take a bullet straight through my brain Yes, I would die for ya, baby But you won’t do the same

I would get out of school and go straight to my computer to create beats.

When I see a story, I ask: is this something I’d like to be in? Is this something I’d like to see? And if I’d like to see it, would I like to tell it?

The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.

But if the arrow is straight And the point is slick, It can pierce through dust no matter how thick. So I’ll make my stand And remain as I am And bid farewell and not give a damn.

I am not one who flamboyantly believes in throwing a lot of words around.

I do what I do. You like it, great. You don’t, go listen to somebody else. I’m stickin’ with the people that stuck with me.

There are no straight lines or sharp corners in nature. Therefore, buildings must have no straight lines or sharp corners.

The straight line belongs to Man. The curved line belongs to God

Life is pretty simple: You do some stuff. Most fails. Some works. You do more of what works. If it works big, others quickly copy it. Then you do something else. The trick is the doing something else

Whether it’s with my engineers in the team, my home life, or my friends, I don’t like things to get complicated – and one good example would be the steering wheel in my Mercedes Formula 1 car.
