I am proud to call myself a Hindu, I am proud that I am one of your unworthy servants.

Therefore have faith in yourselves, be proud of your ancestors, instead of being ashamed of them.

Federal prison, if you get any of it, you're going to have to do 85% of it. And the reason why I called it that is because I had a friend who got sent to the federal joint and his whole... it wasn't about him being in jail. He cried about the 85%.

So far as a man may be proud of a religion rooted in humility, I am very proud of my religion; I am especially proud of those parts of it that are most commonly called superstition.

We all want to be identified as someone cool, and I have struggled with repping where I'm from and my heritage before. It's part of growing pains.
