When your will power is gone, you are helpless.

Keep your eye on what you're responsible to and what you're responsible for, and that'll keep you right.

I hit rock bottom before I even went there. Actually, prison was the rescue mission that God had put on me. He sent out his angels to rescue me. In prison, he protected me the whole time I was in there, and it was just for me to get my will power back, to get my strength back, get my focus together.

The way you can be careful of the catastrophe that success can bring is by paying attention to something else that comes along with success - responsibility.

There's a little bit of gospel in everything I do. But I don't know if I will ever do a gospel album. There's a big universe out here, and I don't want to just sing to the church. I want to sing to the world and bring them a message of love. I love going to church and singing gospel songs, but right now there's a message that the world needs.

I'm too grateful to be hateful. I am too blessed to be stressed.
