Eminem's quotes
- I don't want them once they turn 18 - On Britney Spears & Christina Aguilera.
- At this point, I'm like "Come up with something new. I hate the same old questions. But it seems like "white" magazines such as Spin and Rolling Stone focus on my "whiteness" more than Black magazines" --On his colour
- Why is it so hard for people to believe that white people are poor?! I wouldn't say I lived in a ghetto, I'd say I lived in the 'hood. The same friends I had back then are the same people on tour with me now
- There's a difference between realness and an act, and they're an act, and they know they're an act, and they even say they're an act, they even say they're cornballs, they admit it. --On Insane Clown Posse
- My family has never been there for me. They expect things because we're blood. --On his family
- "Some asshole kept throwing oranges and other fruit at me while I was onstage. Fucker had an arm like a major league pitcher..." --About one of his concerts.
- Don't do drugs, don't have unprotected sex, don't be violent. Leave that to me.
- I had too much NyQuil and Vivarin again. Lost my stomach all over the place.
- Never take ecstasy, beer, baccardi, weed, pepto bismol, vivarin, tums, tagamet hb, xanax, and valium in the same day. It makes it difficult to sleep at night.
- Sometimes I'm real cool, but sometimes I could be a real asshole. I think everyone is like that.
- "I would never fucking put them in a rhyme. I don't even want them wondering if I was trying to diss them. I got a lot of love for them. I grew up on that shit. The other rappers, whatever." --On Beastie Boys.
- All my life I've been dealing with my race because of where I grew up [Detroit] and being in the rap game. I'm at a boiling point...Anybody who pulls the race card is getting it right back in their face.
- I get offended when people say, `So, being a white rapper...and growing up white...after being born white...' It's all I ever hear!
- "It doesn't exactly feel like a shock, but it's all new to me, and I'm taking it in as it comes." --On his rise to stardom.
- A lot of my rhymes are just to get chuckles out of people. Anybody with half a brain is going to be able to tell when I'm joking and when I'm serious.
- A bunch of girls, swinging from a nice chandelier, landing on top of me naked...while I lay in a pool of steaming hot water! --On his spring break fantasy
- I try not to look at it that way. Being white. I don't wake up every day and look in the mirror, 'Oh. I'm white'.
- My father? I never knew him. Never even seen a picture of him.
- There was a while when I was feeling like, 'Damn, if I'd just been born black, I would not have to go through all this'.
- I do say things that I think will shock people. But I don't do things to shock people. I'm not trying to be the next Tupac, but I don't know how long I'm going to be on this planet. So while I'm here, I might as well make the most of it.
- Anybody with a sense of humour is going to put on my album and laugh from beginning to end.
- Saving Private Ryan (1998) was probably the illest, sickest movie I've ever watched, and I didn't see anybody criticizing that one for violence.
- I grew up listening to 2 Live Crew and NWA and I never went out and shot nobody.
- I don't like rap anyways, I'm just trying to get my porno career started.
- We just kept moving back and forth because my mother never had a job. We kept getting kicked out of every house we were in. I believe six months was the longest we ever lived in a house.
- Whoever likes my stuff, likes my stuff. But just know Slim Shady is hip hop. I grew up on hip hop, it's the music I love and it's the music I respect. I respect the culture...that's me.
- Infinite was me trying to figure out how I wanted my rap style to be, how I wanted to sound on the mic and present myself. It was a growing stage. I felt like Infinite was like a demo that just got pressed up.
- I think my first album opened a lot of doors for me to push the freedom of speech to the limit.
- I don't have to say anything to my fans about my music and try to explain it, because they get it, and that's why they are fans, do you know what I mean?
- I am whatever you say I am.
- I have a lot of respect for Kim Basinger, and I think that she's a really nice lady and she's beautiful, and that's all I'm gonna say. As far as us being together, it's untrue -- not that I wouldn't.
