“If you’re trying to achieve, there will be roadblocks. I’ve had them; everybody has had them.”

Another day, another opportunity to prove everyone who doubts you wrong.

What is love? Love is playing every game as if it’s your last!

Never say never, because limits, like fears, are often just an illusion.

Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, and others make it happen.

I realize i am black, but id like to be viewed as a person, and that is everybodys wish.

I’ve never lost a game I just ran out of time.

If nobody will help you do it alone!

No brain, no gain. Stay in school.

Confidence allows you to progress in something you’re attempting to accomplish, whether it’s playing basketball or baseball or whether it’s trying to succeed in business.

You don’t show up on game day and expect to be great. Greatness happens in practice. You have to expect things of yourself before you can do them.

Great players never look in the mirror and think I’m a great basketball player. You ask yourself, Am I the best player I can be?

Don’t be like me. Be better than me. That’s the goal.

Sometimes a winner is just a dreamer who never gave up.

My mother is my root, my foundation. She planted the seed that I base my life on, and that is the belief that the ability to achieve starts in your mind.

Just play. Have fun. Enjoy the game.

Always turn a negative situation into a positive situation.

There is no harm in dreaming of becoming the world’s best player. It is all about trying to be the best. I will keep working hard to achieve it but it is within my capabilities.

If you want to achieve anything in this world, you have to get used to the idea that not everyone will like you.

If my mind can conceive it, and my heart can believe it – then I can achieve it.

Be not afraid of greatness. Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and others have greatness thrust upon them.

Success is not achieved by winning all the time. Real success comes when we rise after we fall.

To achieve great things, we must first dream

I fully expected that, by the end of the century, we would have achieved substantially more than we actually did.

Whatever the mind of man can conceive and believe, it can achieve.
