Coolio

Life is too short to not have fun; we are only here for a short time compared to the sun and the moon and all that. ”

As much as I would like to be the one who saved hip-hop culture, it's pretty much nigh-on impossible. ”

I wasn't driving down the wrong side of the street, smoking marijuana, waving my gun out the window. ”

I have seven children. Even if you got a lot of money, feeding 5, 6, 7, 8 mouths, it will do some damage to your pocket. ”

When my mother first passed away some time ago, I didn't enjoy food anymore. I just ate to live. My mother had always cooked so well that I didn't think I could follow her. ”

I come from the golden age of hip hop when all the greats came on the scene. ”

I'm a winner; I win most of the time. But in order to be a winner, you have to lose some of the time. I'm a terrible loser. ”

I think anybody can cook if they take the time. ”

I was hungry a coupla' times but for the most part I ate every day... I got to go to school for free. ”

I just think it's my responsibility as a human being and an entertainer to see the soldiers. ”
