“Gift ain't what you take by effort, as swag ain't what you worthy have.”
“ 'It ain't ever over. You can't have no future if you don't have no past, and the past ain't never done with you...At the end of your life, all you have is what you know.' ”
“What you ain't never understood is that I ain't got nothing, don't own nothing, ain't never really wanted nothing that wasn't for you. There ain't nothing as precious to me...There ain't nothing worth holding on to, money, dreams, nothing else--”
“It ain't what they call you, it's what you answer to.”
“It ain't what you say: it's how you say it.”
“...there ain't no journey what don't change you some.”
