I was supposed to be in the NBA. I was supposed to travel the world and make the world a better place.

Rolexes never lose value, so I started getting a couple of them. I like them. Not only do they look good but they work very well.

Today is a new day. Even if you were wrong yesterday, you can get it right today.

The hardest thing to do is to trust people.

I'm just going to keep working. Spend more days in the gym, as possible. Just trying to get my game up, and just keep playing. And if it's in God's will for me to win, then I'll get it.

But at the end of the day, every star, every person that been iconic, has gone through a time in their lives where it was just bad. Everybody. It just made them better.

I want to be the greatest player ever in my era.

Sugar can cause fatigue and it can also build up on your joints. It can lead to those injuries where you've got nagging pain on those joints.

The only way to shut people up is just by winning and just playing basketball.

That's one thing I pride myself on is working hard in the weight room, working hard in practice, trying to become a better player.

I once broke up with a boy because he wrote me an awful poem.

Everyone has a dream, so why not dream big... it just might happen!

I want to die like my grandfather died . . . peacefully in his sleep. Not like the other three people screaming in the car.

My punishment is greater than I can bear.

Just let the wardrobe do the acting.

People always grow and mature.

We tend to treat our knowledge as personal property to be protected and defended. It is an ornament that allows us to rise in the pecking order. [...] We take what we know a little too seriously.

Stay positive and love your life.

I am really dedicated to understanding the planet/creature on which we live and know that means I must go beneath the sea to see 72 percent of what is going on.
