Everything has been such a whirlwind ever since I stepped foot in the league and everything has been like a dream, so I'm just blessed to be in this position.

You sacrificed for us - you're the real MVP.

So many people doubted me. They motivated me every single day, to be, who I am.

In the game of basketball, I play first off because I love it. I love to have fun. I love to run up and down the court.

I didn’t fall in love with it just because it was me playing. I fell in love with it because I’ve got guys like this – like these guys every single day that push me to be the best that I can be.

Whoever want my spot can play me one-on-one for it.

The grass is not always greener on the other side. You learn to appreciate these people.

First off, I'd like to thank God for changing my life. It let me really realize what life is all about. Basketball is just a platform for me to inspire people, and I realize that.

My dream was to become a rec league coach. That's what I wanted to do. I wanted to stay home and help the kids out and be a coach.

This city, all they want us to be is ourselves. You love us how we are. We’re all a work in progress as men and you still love us and I thank you so much for embracing us.

Last, I just want to thank God again. He's the first and the last. Alpha and Omega. I thank you for saving my life.

On a basic level- everything we say- essentially anything that comes out of our mouths is a rationalisation in some form or another

Tous mes anciens amours vont me revenir.'- All my old loves will be returned to me

Just look at us, all of us, quietly doing our thing and trying to matter. The earnestness is inspiring and heartbreaking at the same time.

I will get my education - if it is in home, school, or anyplace.

Stop crying... keep hustling.

We cannot change the Koran or make no modifications, this cannot be done, or it would no longer be holy.

I had a naïve idea that if I could tell the story, people would be outraged and do something about conditions in the jails.

I am not among those who fear the people. They, and not the rich, are our dependence for continued freedom.

The finest people, as people go, cannot help but betray a fair portion of fear and insecurity, even full-blown panic.

Accept that you are enough. You don't need to be anything that you are not.
