There’s a Jay-Z quotable for everything in life. Highest highs, lowest lows, failures, struggles and triumphs. There’s a Hov quote for that. Widely-considered the greatest rapper ever, with a Top 5 life, the filthy rich, impossibly-successful Rap mogul IS the American dream.

Here are the living legend’s greatest quotables. Take a look.

Hov to the deeply-bitter and scorned who subtweet their exes on Twitter:

“So if you drunk off love I suggest you get over it/Ma, cry me a river, build a bridge, and GET OVER IT” – “I Need Love (Freestyle)”
