The Kingsway Music LIBRARY was sort of a byproduct of all the creation I was doing. As creators, we KIND of just create blindly sometimes and I couldn't physically see every idea through, so I created this ecosystem where I MADE the ideas available to PEOPLE to download, to sample and to put their own twist on it.

The INTERNET MADE FAME wack and anonymity COOL.

In this DIGITAL age, there is no place to hide BEHIND public relations people. This digital age requires LEADERS to be visible and authentic and to be able to communicate the decisions they've made and why they've made them, to be able to acknowledge when they've made a MISTAKE and to move FORWARD, to engage in the debate.

The only PEOPLE who benefit from lawsuits are lawyers. I think we MADE a couple of them RICH.

ART owes its origin to Nature herself... this beautiful creation, the world, supplied the first model, while the original TEACHER was that divine intelligence which has not only made US SUPERIOR to the other ANIMALS, but like God Himself, if I may venture to say it.

When I read the Upanishads, which are PART of Vedanta, I found a profundity of worldview that MADE my Christianity seem LIKE third GRADE.

I TOOK a lot of INFLUENCES from Studio Ghibli, which is the Japanese ANIMATION studio that made 'Spirited Away' and 'Castle in the SKY.' They're like the Japanese version of Disney - but without all the schmaltz.

'Zoolander.' YEAH, I mean, I love Ben Stiller; he's just a BRILLIANT GUY. And I love Will FERRELL in it, too. His character, to me, is just insane, and he made such huge choices, and he's such a weirdo!

I MADE the Yankee HAT more FAMOUS than a Yankee can.

When I finished 'P.S. I Still Love You,' I truly was done with the series. I kept SAYING the BOOKS were two halves of a heart. But I suppose time and space had made me NOSTALGIC, because my mind kept drifting BACK to Lara Jean and Peter, WONDERING what they were up to.

Every single PLACE that's brushed upon me has made me the artist that I am - from Nigerian Highlife MUSIC and the vocal melodies that I grew up on when I would be sitting with my father and his fellow chiefs, to the funk and freeness of the Bay AREA groove, to L.A.'s smooth G-funk legacy, Brooklyn's lyricism, and now Atlanta's TRAP history.

God already knows what we're MADE of, but perhaps He wants US to learn what we're made of. I think we would all agree that we learn more from our tough times than from our EASY times.

MARRIAGES are MADE in HEAVEN and consummated on EARTH.

FAR BETTER an approximate answer to the RIGHT question, which is OFTEN vague, than the EXACT answer to the wrong question, which can always be made precise.

We are all shaped by where we grow up, though that shaping takes different FORMS. I don't THINK there's any DOUBT that coming of age in Winnipeg both opened my eyes and made me HUNGRY - if I can subvert all claims to be a real writer by mixing metaphors like that.
