The top 10 most inspiring quotes by LaKeith Stanfield
- I write poetry, and I put it to a beat – I mean, that’s what they call rap.
- My two little twin brothers have autism, so I grew up around it and misunderstood it for a long time.
- Some people look like they’re lost causes, but they’re not. Even if they’re in a messed up situation, the one little thing you do to help can go a long way.
- Hip-hop is not all ‘2 Chainz’ – although ‘2 Chainz’ is awesome. How he does that with metaphors, I don’t know.
- Music is something I do full-time in real life. I was doing music long before I was even thinking about acting.
- It’s been constant grinding and trying to secure work that I care about, tireless auditions and meetings. I’ve been fortunate that a lot of cool doors have opened to me, chiefly meeting great people who were inspired by what I’ve done and what they feel I could bring to their projects.
- It’s a hard thing when you’ve got guns pointed at you, to still stand up for what you believe in. Jimmie Lee and his family did that, and several others.
- I think prejudice has gotten to a point where a lot of people hold biases in their mind and don’t even realize that they’re doing it, because it’s deeply ingrained in the fabric of what it means to be an American.
- The prison industrial system, things like that are cleverly put in place to attempt to marginalize a certain group of people – and it’s not only black, it’s replete across the American society.
- I was born in San Bernardino in summer of ’91 and grew up in Riverside, San Bernardino, and Victorville.
