“You have to be able to accept failure to get better.”

Don’t be afraid of failure. This is the way to succeed.

I can’t worry about what other people say.

I’m ready to accept the challenge. I’m coming home.

I treated it like every day was my last day with a basketball.

Imagine doing your job at the highest level to where you’re not needed anymore.

Some got no luck and some got all the luck in the world. I definitely got lucky with you that for sure!

A lion on the creep looking for his next kill!

I hear that word pressure all the time. There is a lot of pressure put on me, but I don’t put a lot of pressure on myself. I feel if I play my game, it will take care of itself.

I enjoy the competition and whatever it takes throughout the competition, I will do it.

I feel confident because I’m the best player in the world. It’s that simple.

My power. My control. My freedom. Unleashed.

I don’t know how tall I am or how much I weigh. Because I don’t want anybody to know my identity. I’m like a superhero. Call me Basketball Man.

Believe in yourself, even if it mean sacrificing everything.

I like criticism. It makes you strong.

To be the best, you have to work the hardest. You have to chase what seems impossible over and over and over again, because giving up is not an option.

When you feel like you’ve reached your limit, it’s only the beginning.

Now is the accepted time, not tomorrow, not some more convenient season. It is today that our best work can be done.

I believe you make your day. You make your life. So much of it is all perception, and this is the form that I built for myself. I have to accept it and work within those compounds, and it’s up to me.

There was a time, when I blamed my companion if his religion did not resemble mine. Now, however, my heart accepts every form….Love alone is my religion.

I have not asked for life. But I try to accept whatever life brings without surprise. And I shall depart again without having questioned anyone about my strange stay here on earth.

Comediennes are the lucky ones, because if you’re funny, you can be 125 years old and they will still accept you.

It doesn’t matter what you expected, but you must accept what reality offers to you at the end.

How we feel about ourselves determines what we accept and what we let go.

He who has calmly reconciled his life to fate … can look fortune in the face.
