Eminem

I was a smart kid, but I hated school.

I try to treat all the money I'm making like it's the last time I'm going to make it.

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 studied international relations and economics at the University of Virginia. I paid my way by working as a bartender in the summer and at three part-time jobs during the year.

It's good to like yourself, and that only comes from hard work, from doing. But vanity is dangerous; it can trip you badly.
