James Brown

I'm the hardest working man in show business.

I'm a showman. I love to entertain. I love to make people happy.

I don't play no games. I play for real.

I'm a man of the people. I'm a man of the streets.

I'm just trying to make a living, trying to do my best.

I don't believe in segregation. I believe in integration. I believe in love.

I want to be remembered as a man who cared about people.

I'm a survivor. I've been through a lot. But I always come back.

I'm a good man. I'm a loving man. I'm a giving man.

I'm not trying to be anybody else. I'm just trying to be James Brown.

I'm the Godfather of Soul. I'm the architect of funk. I'm the inventor of hip-hop.

I love to dance. I love to sing. I love to perform.

I'm a revolutionary. I'm a rebel. I'm a nonconformist.

I'm not a saint. I'm a sinner. But I'm a good sinner.

I'm a living legend. I'm a living icon. I'm a living myth.

I'm a work of art. I'm a masterpiece. I'm a classic.

I'm a gift from God. I'm a blessing from heaven. I'm a miracle from above.

I'm a one-of-a-kind. I'm a original. I'm a trendsetter.

I'm a legend in my own time. I'm a legend in my own right. I'm a legend forever.

I'm a force of nature. I'm a force to be reckoned with. I'm a force to be admired.
